Error: Member holding type details required

I'm using Roo 1.1.3.RELEASE [rev 4404ffb] on Ubuntu with Java 1.6.0_21_x64 connecting to an Oracle DB.

Trying to run database reverse engineer --schema ... --testAutomatically yields the following output:

roo> database reverse engineer --schema <schema> --testAutomatically
Created SRC_MAIN_RESOURCES/dbre.xml
Undo manage SRC_MAIN_RESOURCES/META-INF/persistence.xml

Created SRC_MAIN_JAVA/ar/GomezFactPK_Roo_Identifier.aj
Deleted SRC_MAIN_JAVA/ar/GomezFact_Roo_Entity.aj
Deleted SRC_MAIN_JAVA/ar/GomezFactPK_Roo_Identifier.aj

Not sure what the problem here is. Running the introspect yields what looks to be pretty standard, though I'm a total newbie when it comes to Roo. Help please?

roo> database introspect --schema <schema>

Restarting STS and re-running the same command but without "--testAutomatically" yields the below error:

Attach the xml file by running database introspect --schema <schema> --file <file name>

XML attached, same as in OP.

I can't reproduce the error however I don't have your schema DDL in a standalone Roo shell, I just allowed Roo to create the entities directly from the dbre.xml file using 1.1.3.RELEASE and 1.1.4.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.

I had to create the tests using test intregration --entity com.foo.empty.GomezFact etc. Still no errors.

If you want to attach your Oracle schema DDL can use the same steps in STS to attempt to re-create the issue.

Please log a Jira ticket for this an attach the schema there.
Thanks

Works fine for me with both 1.1.3.RELEASE and 1.1.4 sbapshot builds

I followed the commands you executed in script.log attached to the JIRA case and was able to get things started. I'm confused, though, about some of the commands and what purpose they serve. Could you please enlighten this newbie?

osgi start --url http://repository.springsource.com/m...tion-1.1.0.jar
osgi start --url http://repository.springsource.com/m...urce-1.5.0.jar

This last one I gather does something with the JDBC driver JAR for Oracle, though I had been able to execute an introspect prior to running this command.

osgi start --url file:///home/stewarta/.m2/repository/oracle/oracle.ojdbc14/10.2.0.2.0001/oracle.ojdbc14-10.2.0.2.0001.jar

I had to install the OSGi-wrapped Oracle XE driver first. I assume you already had yours installed.

i had that error before "Member holding type details required"

then just created a dummy entity from roo then it works fine again...
