I cloned the source code from this github repository : git://github.com/glyptodon/guacamole-client.git

I am able to build successfully and use it.

I read the License agreement of this project : https://github.com/glyptodon/guacamole-client/tree/master/guacamole/src/licenses

But when I add a class in it and build, It is throwing a license error :

Could someone help me why I am not able to override this opensource project?

Thanks,

You are missing the license header in the file

src/main/java/org/apache/guacamole/rest/auth/TutorialAuthenticationProvider.java

The Guacamole pom.xml is configured to use RAT, which checks all files for the presence of the license text. If the license is not included, the build will fail.

You can also disable RAT with option -Drat.skip=true or add your file to the exclusion list in pom.xml (this is useful for some resource files that do not need a license).
