We are trying to build a maven project where we use the jaxb2-maven-plugin (version 1.4) to generate java classes from some xsd files.

The configuration of one execution looks like this :
<execution>
<id>executionA</id>
<configuration>
<schemaDirectory>src/main/resources</schemaDirectory>
<schemaFiles>path/A.xsd</schemaFiles>
<packageName>package.info.name</packageName>
<staleFile>target/generated-sources/A.jaxb</staleFile>
<bindingFiles>A.xjb</bindingFiles>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>xjc</goal>
</goals>
</execution>

We have, therefore, a A.xjb binding file which is placed in the default 'src/main/xjb' folder and which specifies some bindings
for instance :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jxb:bindings version="1.0" xmlns:jxb="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xjc="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb/xjc" jxb:extensionBindingPrefixes="xjc">
<jxb:globalBindings>
<xjc:simple />
<xjc:serializable uid="1" />
...
</jxb:globalBindings>

<jxb:bindings schemaLocation="../path/A.xsd" node="/xs:schema">
<jxb:schemaBindings>
...
</jxb:schemaBindings>
<jxb:bindings node="//xs:element[@name = 'XXX']">
...
</jxb:bindings>
...
</jxb:bindings>
</jxb:bindings>

The following error occurs when the build is executed on Jenkins :
[INFO] — jaxb2-maven-plugin:1.4:xjc (executionA) @ schemas —

[INFO] Failed to parse a schema.

You may need to know that there exists a symbolic link between the /opt/home/diojenkins and /home/diojenkins so they are the same.

The error occurs only when the build is executed on Jenkins, if we build it in the jenkins workspace with the same options it works just fine.

Can anyone help us ?
