Maven Compilation Error: unreported exception must be caught or declared to be thrown - maven

Question

I'm getting build failure while compiling a storm plugin on linux (while this code works perfectly find on Mac OS X). I've searched multiple sources but none of them seemed to work for me:

This seemed to me like a thrift issue but I can't seem to find out the problem with thrift.
Below is the code that's causing the error:
public void run() {
if (config != null) {
try {
nimbusClient = new NimbusClient(config, (String) config.get(Config.NIMBUS_HOST));
topologies.constructTopologyGraphs();
......
} catch (TTransportException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

From http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/MojoFailureException:
As a rule of thumb, plugins use this error to signal a failure of the build because there is something wrong with the dependencies or sources of a project, e.g. a compilation or a test failure.
Look at text from your stack trace:
unreported exception org.apache.thrift7.transport.TTransportException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
Are you sure that all parts of code who use objects/methods who can generate "TTransportException" has try-catch block and/or has "throws TTransportException" in signature? I think it's the problem. What's static code analyser you use?
P.S.: sorry for non-perfect English, complicated translation for this sentences. If you don't understand, ask the questions.
