maven plugin:install is used from a plugin source tree to build and install a plugin into your maven installation. maven plugin:download (with the artifact ID etc params you gave) is used to get a plugin from a remote repository and install into your maven installation maven plugin:repository-deploy (like jar:deploy) builds a plugin and puts it into your remote repository. You probably want to do a plugin:repository-deploy on the plugin code, then run plugin:download on all Maven installations. - Brett On Tue, 22 Jun 2004 12:39:56 +1000, Washusen, Dan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Put the downloaded jar file in your $MAVEN_HOME/plugins dir (not the > $HOME/.maven/plugins) and then call 'maven plugin:install' with the > appropriate properties. > > So for example one of the sf.net maven-plugins could be installed, after > downloading, with: > maven -DgroupId=maven-plugins -DartifactId=maven-dbunit-plugin -Dversion=1.1 > plugin:install > > That's from memory but it should be right, hope that helps... > > Cheers, > Dan > > -----Original Message----- > From: Eric Giguere [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, 22 June 2004 6:35 AM > To: Maven User List > Subject: deploying plugin jars > > Hi > > Got a small problem.
