Starting local map-matching server with several jars

According to official repo to build .jar file we need to run mvn package -DskipTests in the console. But as a result we are given 4 different jars:

hmm-lib-1.0.0.jar
graphhopper-map-matching-core-0.8.2.jar
graphhopper-map-matching-web-0.8.2.jar
graphhopper-map-matching-web-0.8.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar

(Note I use 0.8 branch because of building problems on master)

In repo readme file we can find the step to import osm.pbf file into service:

java -jar matching-web/target/graphhopper-map-matching-web-3.0-SNAPSHOT.jar import map-data/leipzig_germany.osm.pbf

I assume (please tell me if I’m wrong) that jar which I need to use for that step (and to run matching service)
is graphhopper-map-matching-web-0.8.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar

I ask, because during importing osm.pbf file I faced an error

I’m sure I’m doing something pretty wrong but have no idea what.

You should use the recent_core branch with version 2.0.

Another simpler solution is to use the latest branch in graphhopper/graphhopper where map-matching is now integrated.
