'Failed to build app with Maven, I can run code locally, but fail to deploy on heroku

This is my code in github: https://github.com/q463746583/CS4500-Assignment2 I can run it successfully in the local, but while I try to deploy the code on heroku, There is the error description:

Solution 1:[1]

TLDR:

  1. Ensure you're using the appropriate JAVA JDK
  2. Check that your target environment from the Maven compiler is the same as your targeted Heroku JAVA runtime.
  3. If you're not using the default JAVA 8 JDK runtime environment create a system.properties file in your project specifying a different supported JAVA runtime enviroment as listed within Heroku's JAVA buildpack documentation.

I think this has to do with a mismatch between your targeted Java runtime environment on Heroku and your locally compiled code, generated from the Maven compiler, which you're trying to push to Heroku.

According to Heroku's documentation:

Heroku currently uses OpenJDK 8 to run your application by default. OpenJDK versions 9 and 7 are also available.

Other supported default versions are:

  • Java 7 - 1.7.0_181
  • Java 8 - 1.8.0_191
  • Java 9 - 9.0.4
  • Java 10 - 10.0.2
  • Java 11 - 11

So you should make sure that within your pom.xml file that your maven compiler is compiling your JAVA code to the appropriate JAVA buildpack you're targeting on Heroku. For example, below we are targeting a Java 7 runtime environment:

pom.xml:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.1</version>
    <configuration>
        <source>1.7</source>
        <target>1.7</target>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Then you should create a system.properties file in your project if you're targeting a runtime environment other than Heroku's default JDK 1.8 runtime environment. You can do this by specifying your desired java runtime environment like such:

system.properties:

java.runtime.version=11

I got the same error while deploying the git project in Heroku. I just changed java.version to 8 from 11 in pom.xml and it worked for me:

<properties>
    <java.version>8</java.version>
</properties>

Solution 3:[3]

As per the previous answers, creating a system.properties file, making a new commit with that change and rerunning the heroku command fixed the issue for me.

enter image description here

Also, please be mindful about the name of your branch if you're not using main as your main branch as that would require a match such as.

git push heroku master:main

or

git push heroku develop:main

Solution 4:[4]

To remove this error, simply add one extra file into your repository with the name system.application and

java.runtime.version=11

Solution 5:[5]

Tried all the approaches, but none worked.

SOLUTION: Remove all the references to your Java version in your pom.xml, i.e.

<properties>    
    <java.version>11</java.version>
</properties>
