Issue
I am upgrading my project from java 8 to java 11. I'm able to build and deploy it with java11, spring 5 dependencies but when I am adding module-info.java into my project I am getting below error while build :

I have added maven-compiler-plugin as below in my pom file :
<properties>
<java.version>11</java.version>
<maven.compiler.source>${java.version}</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>${java.version}</maven.compiler.target>
<maven.compiler.release>${java.version}</maven.compiler.release>
</properties>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.8.0</version>
<configuration>
<release>${java.version}</release>
<source>${java.version}</source>
<target>${java.version}</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Please guide me if I am doing something wrong.
Solution
It's a bug in Maven-Compiler-Plugin
Have a look at the below issues:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-355
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-359
specifically at line number CompilerMojo.java:244
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.maven.plugin.compiler.CompilerMojo.preparePaths (CompilerMojo.java:244)
MCOMPILER-355 is fixed in version 3.8.1.
MCOMPILER-359 fix will be part of the next release https://github.com/apache/maven-compiler-plugin/pull/28/files
You should try updating the version of Maven-Compiler-Plugin to 3.8.1.
