I am attempting to get started with running the OpenLiberty java server on Fedora 28, but I can't launch the sample app from the OpenLiberty home page.
The instructions say:
git clone https://github.com/OpenLiberty/sample-getting-started.git
cd sample-getting-started
mvn clean package liberty:run-server
When I ran the server I got a build failure with this error:
Caused by: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException:
User-specified log class 'org.codehaus.mojo.pluginsupport.logging.DelegatingLog' cannot be found or is not useable.
I tried clearing the maven cache and doing another mvn install and that still didn't help. This project works on my macbook just fine. Any ideas how to fix this?
Additional Logs:
This is a shortened version of what I get after running mvn clean package liberty:run-server
