So apparently I have java 11 on my machine among others. I run mvn openmrs-sdk:run -DserverId=myServer (myServer a reference application 2.8.0 which runs on platform 2.1.3). This doesn’t start reporting the culprit being java 1.8.0. Upon examining the java version I realize I am on Java 11. When I switched to java 1.8. it works like charm. So, this is simply an information that might help someone else also maybe it should be fixed.
Associated stack trace is below.
