[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2408?page=comments#action_68318 ]
Brett Porter commented on MNG-2408: ----------------------------------- ok, usually it's a configuration error (you have a proxy that isn't configured). Since it's not the case, it must have been an intermittent issue with ibiblio, which caused a metadata error. This is a known issue (probably filed elsewhere). I'll assign this to 2.0.5 for now, but we should try and find the original issue. > 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 > Assignee: Brett Porter > > > 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. > Graham-Leggetts-Computer:~/src/standard/alchemy/maven minfrin$ mvn > archetype:create -DgroupId=za.co.standardbank.alchemy > -DartifactId=alchemy-trader > [INFO] Scanning for projects... > [INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'archetype'. > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [ERROR] BUILD ERROR > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] The plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin' does not > exist or no valid version could be found > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] For more information, run Maven with the -e switch > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] Total time: 1 second > [INFO] Finished at: Tue Jun 27 09:43:14 SAST 2006 > [INFO] Final Memory: 1M/2M > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
