Maven build and maven-failsafe-plugin - The forked VM terminated without properly saying goodbye

Question

I use Docker and https://github.com/fabric8io/docker-maven-plugin for my integration tests.

On my Windows 10 (after updating to Windows 10 1709) mac

Answer 1

VM can crash because of many reasons. I am highlighting here one more cause it can crash.

I was using maven-surefire-plugin version 2.22.0 with jvm config -Xmx2048m but still it was failing for me.

Cause of failure: Accidentally I changed windows command prompt 'window buffer size' width to 2000 instead of changing the height. It causes the vm crashes in my case. When i ran the build using git bash it worked fine. So I able to figure out the issue and reverted the command prompt 'window buffer size' width to default value and it worked fine for me.

Troubleshooting step:

• Use different command tool to verify this issue. like window command prompt, git bash.
