Installation simply does not work - at least as described
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3809
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3809
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation: General, Errors, Plugin Requests, POM,
Settings
Affects Versions: 2.0.9
Environment: C:\Documents and Settings\Richard Katz>mvn --version
Maven version: 2.0.9
Java version: 1.6.0_01
OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows"
Reporter: Richard Katz
I thought this was working. Unfortunately, a product I was trying to use
wanted to run with Maven 1.0.2 so I downloaded and installed it. But I changed
all the settings I can find back to Maven 2.
Now, I am trying to do a simple mvn clean install but I get errors no matter
what.
Is there a simple way to clean up everything and start over?
Special circumstances.
I have tried
creating a new .m2 directory
Settings:
M2=C:\cygwin\usr\local\maven\apache-maven-2.0.9\bin
M2_HOME=C:\cygwin\usr\local\maven\apache-maven-2.0.9
MAVEN_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=128m -Xmx512m
I am trying this under CMD and under Cygwin.
Here's what I get.
