[anilkumarg4]

Hi team,

Kindly check the below logs and suggest how to resolve this issue.

Hi Anil,

This particular part in the command line is to blame: -Dxspec.template.name.entrypoint=${xspec.template.name.entrypoint}"
Through this xspec.template.name.entrypoint property, the plugin requests the execution of a specific scenario. It's value is an Oxygen editor variable, with the same name, which in your case is not expanded thus leading to the circular definition error.

I think you are running a 21.1 build that has a known issue of not expanding cutom editor variables. The issue was fixed in build 2019090904. You can check your build number from Help->About. If you are running an Oxygen version with an olfer build number, please update:
