Maven giving error Compilation failure javac: invalid target release: 11

44 Views Asked by At

I am trying to build a new dropwizard service. On running the mvn clean install I am getting the following error. This is a personal project . I have some official projects which need Maven to use JAVA 8 only. Hence I cannot change the JAVA_HOME to newer releases.

So mvn --version gives me this:

mvn --version          
Apache Maven 3.6.0 (97c98ec64a1fdfee7767ce5ffb20918da4f719f3; 2018-10-25T00:11:47+05:30)
Maven home: /Users/nitinmisra/software/apache-maven-3.6.0
Java version: 1.8.0_401, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-1.8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
Default locale: en_IN, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "mac os x", version: "14.3", arch: "aarch64", family: "mac"

So for using JAVA-11 for the new project I am trying to configure toolchains. My pom looks like the following -:

I have tried to configure toolchains in my pom for getting this to work.

Update:


I have installed maven to version 3.9.6 . But I am getting the following error.

I would encourage you to take a look on skdman. In my work I have project that use jdk8, there are some on jdk17 and one on jdk21, by running one command I just switch between version whenever I need, it's very handy and simple.

You can chose for example OpenJDK

sdk install java x.y.z-open

then

sdk use java x.y.z-open

Every time you run the command above, the $JAVA_HOME is updated to point to the current version of Java you decided to use.
