Following "How do I make my first Maven project?" doesn't work
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2408
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2408
Project: Maven 2
Type: Bug
Components: Documentation: Guides
Versions: 2.0.4
Reporter: Graham Leggett
If you follow the instructions at
http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html#How%20do%20I%20make%20my%20first%20Maven%20project?
to use the archetype plugin to create a new project skeleton, the suggested
command line fails as below.
It seems there is a typo of some kind in the suggested command line, I am not
familiar enough with maven 2 to know for sure.
