Our company forced me to change to newer Intellij Idea version 2023.1 but I encounter error whenever I try to build our project in Idea:
java: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/JAXBException javax.xml.bind.JAXBException
I use:
java 8u201
apache maven 3.8.5
environmental variables %JAVA_HOME%, %MAVEN_HOME% and their /bin versions in Path are set
Intellij Idea important settings:
Project Settings -> Project: SDK: 8u201 (which is defined as its %JAVA_HOME% path in PlatformSettings->SDKs)
Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Maven: Maven home path: %MAVEN_HOME%
Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Maven -> Importing: VM options for importer: -Xmx768m, JDK: project JDK
Why I need it working:
I need to run JUnit tests in Intellij which initiates Intellij build automatically and it ends up with the error. So that's why I need the build to work.
I expect issue comes from some Intellij settings or somewhere around Intellij specifically. Also consider please the fact it worked in previous Idea 2022.1.4 without changing the project pom or other project related things.
What I tried:
I tried building project in terminal using mvn clean install and that works.
I tried all three of the magic buttons in the right maven tab in Intellij.
I tried using VM option -XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions from this stack overflow thread:
How to resolve java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/JAXBException
I tried to remove all caches from %LOCALAPPDATA%\JetBrains
I tried Invalidate caches and restart Intellij (checking all relevant checkboxes)
I tried switching JDK from oracle to amazon version
I tried switching maven 3.8.5 to 3.9.6
I tried removing maven folder from disc C (there is a folder sources are imported to)
Intellij Idea build-log: (using portable JDK 8u211, but it looks identical with logs using Correto 8 or JDK 8u401)

I figured out solution.
There is option in Settings->Build, Execution, Deployment->Compiler->Java Compiler called Use compiler from module target JDK when possible. When I enabled the option build started behave normally.
Issue is solved for me.
