I'm working on a Java Web-App which was working perfectly fine and I wanted to try to deploy it on Heroku (which I've never done before). I read into it, and followed the steps on Atlassian for creating a Pipeline (shich I've also never done before), as I'm using Bitbucket as version-control system. Whilst reading I thought I would need Maven to make it work, so I copied the project files into a newly created Maven Project and it was working fine as far as I remember. As I said I'm completely new to the subject so I tried a few things, but I always had problems with different Java versions and errors executing the pipeline. The real problem is that when I tried to run it locally again it suddenly threw an Exception that my PU couldn't predeploy, everytime I tried to connect to the database and now I'm stuck here since nearly a week and I don't have any more ideas how to solve it.

The funny part is that the files pojo.Track & pojo.Playlist (which apparently cause the error) are exactly the same in the two projects.

</project> I've already tried everything i found on Stackoverflow, messed around with different java versions, added all kinds of stuff to my pom.xml and tweaked several settings but I'm still tapping in the dark what even causes the error.
I'm using Java 12 and Maven 3.3.9 on NetBeans 11.1, EclipseLink 2.5.2, Tomcat 9.0.2 and Postgresql 42.2.5
Edit: I found out that the Java version is the problem for some reason. I don't know why it doesn't compile correctly with Java 12 but I heard that Web-Apps sometimes have issues with newer verions than 1.8. I need 1.11 or later for my project though as I'm using java.net.http. Does someone know a reason for why JDK 12 wouldn't work?
