Inadequate error diagnosis for archetype problems
-------------------------------------------------
Key: ARCHETYPE-327
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-327
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Creator
Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-5
Environment: JDK 6u21, Ubuntu, Maven 3.0 beta 3.
Reporter: Jesse Glick
Priority: Minor
Attachments: maven-archetype-plugin-diagnosis.diff
See https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=190033 for background. If you
run the command listed there with a clean repository under Maven 3.0 beta 3,
you get an error, but maven-archetype-plugin does not really help you track it
down. Turns out there is a ZipException due to a *.jar file actually being an
HTTP error message, but the closest you get is
{code}
...
