title: SpringBoot Project build failure with Open JDK 11.0.2 in Intellij 2019.1
body: <p>I recently upgraded my project from Oracle JDK8 to OpenJDK 11.0.2 </p>
  
  <p>Java Version in my system</p>
  
  <pre><code>openjdk 11.0.2 2019-01-15
  OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9)
  OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.2+9, mixed mode)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I build my project using maven from the terminal it compiles fine but is failing while building the same using IntelliJ. There is no stack trace to look upon, every time I build the project it shows me this error. </p>
  
  <p>This says it's a NullPointerException and I know we have lots of duplicate questions on SO for the same, I am not asking to resolve NullPointer but instead if someone can help me just figure out a way to check the logs while building the project using <strong>play</strong> button in IntelliJ, I will help myself afterward.</p>

  <p>I checked the idea.log file and there is nothing to be suspicious about.</p>
