Maven Ubuntu build succeeds but Maven Centos build fails

Post by geoffh »

I have a Maven build that completes without errors on an Ubuntu 64 VM
The same build fails on a Centos 64 VM with the error message 'out of disk space"
- the two attachments are the vminfo for each VM

A bit of investigation shows that the error is actually due to running out of inodes and using the following post
(stackoverflow questions 653096 howto-free-inode-usage)
I was able to identify what was causing the inodes to be used

I'm using the nar-maven-plugin
and it turns out that this Maven plugin copies lots of include files into the target area of each build module

I have a question raised about limiting the number of include files copied on the nar-maven-plugin forum

In the meantime, I was wondering if there are any configuration options available to increase the number of inodes
- or to specify a number when creating the VM

As this is my first post, I'm prevented from supplying URLs
I'll try and post them in a couple of days for:
stack overflow inode question
nar-maven-plugin / forum question

Thanks for reading and any help

Would you ask this question in a Dell/HP/Sony/Apple forum? Probably not, because the hardware manufacturer has no knowledge of the intricacies of your OS. Same here. VirtualBox provides the "hardware". It has no immediate knowledge of your OS or its limitations. Besides the maven-plugin forum, I would also suggest an appropriate CentOS forum as well...
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.
