Hi, I am running into issues building openmrs-core straight out from Git - Master branch. Any ideas what I am missing? Please let me know.

Delete it and try to clone afresh. ---

Thanks. I am wondering if this is related to Mac OS or JDK 1.8.0\_151-b12. I tried multiple time to delete and clone new, ended up with same results. I had access to a windows machine and it just works fine. JDK version of windows is 1.8.0\_141-b15. ---

Is it any better if you upgrade your java to at least 1.8.0\_152? Because it is a file access problem, can you also check the folder/file permissions? ---

The folder has read and execute permission to all users. I updated java to latest release 1.8.0\_152 it did not help. Not sure what I am missing. ---

@dkayiwa. Thanks. I think this is related to file path issue. I had a special character ‘@’ in the folder name and it was getting encoded to %40. I moved to a different directory structure and it worked. Thanks ---

Does it compile if you take it back to? /Users/kswarna/git/openmrs-core ---

Yes it does. I moved it to /users/shared/openmrs/ and was able to build without any issues. I think other solution might be to decode filepath before running the testcase. ---

Remove spaces from the folder path where you put the openmrs source. Then compile again. ---
