Issue

  • We are observing errors in the console log for various plugins when trying to build a custom fragment via maven in AWS Codebuild:
[ERROR] Failed to parse plugin descriptor... Invalid CEN header

Environment

  • DXP 7.4

Resolution

  • This could likely be the result of a parent block defined in the pom.xml file or mutiple pom.xml files.

Additional Information

  • Please note as well that AWS Codebuild is a third party tool requiring a subscription and not something that is officially supported by Liferay at this time.
