Maven compilation failure when building Dockerfile

I have a Springboot application that I’m trying to dockerize, this is my Dockerfile.

FROM openjdk:11-jre-slim as build
WORKDIR /app
COPY mvnw .
COPY .mvn .mvn
COPY pom.xml .
RUN ./mvnw dependency:go-offline -B

# Copy the project source
COPY src src

# Package the application
RUN ./mvnw package -DskipTests

RUN mkdir -p target/dependency && (cd target/dependency; jar -xf ../*.jar)

FROM openjdk:11-jre-slim

ARG DEPENDENCY=/app/target/dependency
COPY --from=build ${DEPENDENCY}/BOOT-INF/lib /app/lib
COPY --from=build ${DEPENDENCY}/META-INF /app/META-INF
COPY --from=build ${DEPENDENCY}/BOOT-INF/classes /app

ENTRYPOINT ["java","-cp","app:app/lib/*", Path to my main class]

When trying to build a Docker image I get this Compilation error, this occurs at this specific step after downloading a bunch of dependencies, which takes some time.

RUN ./mvnw package -DskipTests

I tried using many jdk images but still seem to get an error, I tried googling and most of the issues resulted from an issue related to an IDE and the java path variables, but I don’t know how I could fix that error in my case.

>Solution :

The error itself gives you the answer. Try switching the image to maven:3.8.6-openjdk-11.
With maven image, you don’t need to copy maven wrapper also.

I’ll suggest you to build the JAR in a different env (maybe a docker stage). Once you build the JDK, copy only that to the final release image.
