Hi This is my profile

An error is reported after "MVN package" is executed. The error is as follows

Hi @peiwuqing!

Are you sure that the icon (winConfig.icoFile) is an ICO file?

Another thing: I guess you are packaging your app for Windows, but ... are you bundling a JRE for Mac OS? You should download a Java runtime for Windows and use it instead of the Mac OS one.

Hi @fvarrui

I'm sure I must be using an ICO file. Because I saw this solution on StackOverflow and converted it according to the provided ICO address.

I tried to download the same version of JDK for windows, but the error remained

Ok. Please, could you try to run the next command (highlighted) just after the building process fails? Maybe this way we can figure out what is happening with windres command.

Yes, this will only give you problems when trying to run your application on Windows.

Hi @fvarrui I have tried to run it. Please see the picture for the result

Please help me see if there is any solution

Hi @peiwuqing!

Sorry for my soooooo late reply.

Two suggestions:

Remove your ICO and try again.
Try to package your app using -X option for a full debug logging (and the nyou can share it here, please)
