Failing to find the hpi packaging type

I am trying to build a Jenkins plugin.

What I already did was creating a Maven project from the hello-world-plugin archetype.

But when I do mvn verify, it gives me the following error:

How can I point it to the hpi package?

Hello @joris and welcome to this community. :wave:

Please, next time you want to show us logs, do a textual copy and paste, not a screenshot. :pray:

I had that kind of error when trying to build a very old plugin with a recent version of Maven.
Could you please show us your pom.xml?

I believe this is cross-posted from

If that’s not the case, then it may be that the same problem is happening here. In that case, the developer was trying to use Java 8 to create a new Jenkins plugin. The Jenkins project stopped supporting Java 8 for development of new plugins over a year ago.

yes, is me. sorry for enfore your double time.

Repeat my results in this:
archetype 1.22 + Java 17 work well.
archetype 1.7 + Java 8 work well.
No continue attempts.
