The following example shows how to do so for JDK 8 update 51 build 16. This means those using a older JDK donвЂ™t get the benefits, but since locally I use JDK 8, and all my open source projects use Travis CI, eventually these issues will be identified. However, In case youвЂ™re running a small gear with only 1GB of memory, you might want to save a bit of your precious memory. To deal with this, I changed my Maven configuration to only run these two plugins when run under the sufficient JDK. If you got enough memory, youвЂ™re done here. 600MB per JDK), because the JDK is stored twice вЂ“ compressed in cache to be sent to slave and again uncompressed to be used on the master. This is comfortable, but has one disadvantage: It takes a lot of memory (approx. You could just choose a specific JDK via Jenkins console. This allows for using a specific JDK in Jenkins. And thatвЂ™s it, your builds are now running on the custom maven!.M2_HOME= $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/maven/apache-maven-3.3.3 PATH= $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/maven/apache-maven-3.3.3/bin:$PATH (press i button for edit mode, insert, then press esc button, enter :wq, finally press return button) Vi $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/maven/apache-maven-3.3.3/conf/settings.xmlДЄdd the following to the tag (replace by your OpenShift UID first) /var/lib/openshift//app-root/data/.m2 The following example show what to do for maven 3.3.3: SSH to the machines where your builds are executed (e.g.So, in order to exchange the JDK, we need to exchange maven first.

The following shows how to replace the вЂњstockвЂќ versions of maven and JDK that are provided by OpenShift.ДЄt the time of writing OpenShift features Maven 3.0.4 and OpenJDK Server 1.7.0_85. In previous posts I pointed out how to build GitHub projects with Jenkins, Maven and SonarQube and how to run these builds on dedicated Jenkins slaves. The steps described for using a custom maven still apply, however. So you might want to skip the steps bellow, regarding a custom JDK. [EDIT (): OpenShift now provides different JDK вЂњalternativesвЂќ, e.g.
