error main class com.playonlinux.app.PlayOnLinuxApp about phoenicis

#298 should fix the issue.
However, please note that PlayOnLinux 5 is far from being stable at the moment.

I've been unable to reproduce your test failure. Can you give us more informations on what you're using, java/maven version and whether it is the oracle or openJDK ? Anyway you can skip maven tests with the -DskipTests=true option.

You're problem is probably due to the fact that POL5 don't have a proper packaging at the moment. To launch it you can either

• get all the subproject's jar in you're java classpath (java -cp)
• launch it from an ide (In eclipse : Run as application on PlayOnLinuxApp in the phoenicis-app project)

It seems that the wiki isn't up to date. Actually the packaging was broken. #300 should partly fix your problem.

While it isn't merged you can test it by cloning it from my repository :

• git clone -b Assembly https://github.com/Tomahna/POL-POM-5.git
• cd POL-POM-5
• mvn clean package (with -DskipTests if you still have test failures)
• cd phoenicis-dist/target
• unzip phoenicis-dist.zip
• cd phoenicis-dist
• ./PlayOnLinux.sh

Pull Request has been merged, you should be able to package PlayOnLinux from this repository now.

I would be nice if the script did a little footwork to ensure Java 8 is used. On Arch Linux, Java 7 and Java 8 can co-exists, and users shouldn't be forced to set everything default to Java 8. This section from their wiki works well:

export PATH=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre/bin/:$PATH

Resulting in

POL_HOME=$(dirname $0)
CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:$POL_HOME/lib/*

# Ensure path of Java 8 takes precedence on systems with Java 7 and 8 both installed
# This is non-destructive and does not force users to set the default java env to Java 8
export PATH=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre/bin/:$PATH

java -classpath "$CLASSPATH" com.playonlinux.app.PlayOnLinuxApp "$@"
