Error occured during the build: java.nio.charset.MalformedInputException

Hello everyone!

I ran into a problem while developing a project in Eclipse for the OpenText Content Server.

The build of the whole project fails, after which you have to restart Eclipse.

I have to restart the development environment, because OTCS, when accessed through the browser, first displays a blank screen, and then the message:
--------------------------------------------------

Failed to connect to server

Content Server is not available or configured incorrectly.

Try again. If the problem persists, contact your Content Server administrator.

Failed to connect to server xxxx [****.****.****.****]: xxxx.

--------------------------------------------------

In fact, the build is successful, the modules are compiled, the support files are transferred.

Also, each module of solution is successfully built separately, no errors occur.

The error in Eclipse IDE reads:

--------------------------------------------------

'Building Workspace' has encountered a problem.

Error occured during the build.

Errors running builder 'OScript Source Builder' on project 'ecm-project'.

java.nio.charset.MalformedInputException: Input length = 1

--------------------------------------------------

OS: RHEL 7.8

Content Server 20.3, build 16.2.13.1230

Eclipse IDE version: 2020-06 (4.16.0). Build id: 20200615-1200

CSIDE plug-in version: 20.3.0.v20200513_01602

Text file encoding of the project: UTF-8.

Has anyone encountered a similar error?

Andrew,
I have not seen that specific error before.  Have you recently updated your cside plugin?  I try to keep the latest version installed and sometimes the latest will cause me problems so I will go back to an older (more stable...at least for me) version.  If you do not have the latest version you might try that to see if it helps.
Cheers...
