Freemarker missing

[Frank Herrman]

Hi all,

After restarting Ofbiz I suddenly found an error in the logs relating to Freemarker. This was the error:

/framework/base/src/main/java/org/apache/ofbiz/base/util/template/FreeMarkerWorker.java:74: error: cannot find symbol
    public static final Version version = Configuration.VERSION_2_3_28;

This suggests Freemarker was not available. I did some recent changes to templates, but nothing spectacular and certainly nothing with freemarker code or configuration. I’m not sure which modification caused this error since you don’t need to restart for template changes.

I ended up downloading and copying freemarker.jar into the /lib/ folder which resolved the issue, but that doesn’t feel right. Does anybody have any idea what went wrong here?

Kind regards,

Frank

Hi Aditya,

I am using the latest release: 16.11.05. It did work before with this release, so it is probably caused by myself. I'm just wondering what it could have been.

Kind regards,
 
Frank
