Jetty Annotation Timeout Reason


I am tying to run my web application with maven jetty plugin. But after some time at startup, it gives the error:

[INFO] Web defaults = org/eclipse/jetty/webapp/webdefault.xml
[INFO] Web overrides =  none
2014-08-10 17:39:45.840:INFO:oejs.Server:main: jetty-9.2.2.v20140723

I am using spring mvc with annotations and I think there is a problem about it.

When I try to run it over eclipse jetty plugin, it starts succesfully, but with maven plugin, it gives the error.

Any ideas?


Solution

  • I've got the same error and to fix it, you should add to your start script (start.ini) the following:

    -Dorg.eclipse.jetty.annotations.maxWait=120
    

    120 is for two minutes of annotation scanning in case that you need a higher value, just set it to the propper one.
