Translated to English, that means that the elements in your project.xml file are in the wrong order.

You can find the correct order here:
  http://maven.apache.org/reference/project-descriptor.html
or here:
  http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-project-3.0.0.xsd

You have a typo that messes up the parsing of the file:
${basedir)/test
should be
${basedir}/test
Notice the curly here --------------^

Thanks guys.I ran
maven pom:validate and got the same error message, so I suspect theres something I'm 
marking up in the XML.There is what my project.xml looks like:

I must mention that I don't have any junit test classes , so maybe the



**/Test*.java


**/*Test*All.java



shouldn't be there ?Or , does it really matter?Also this : /foobar/dist/${pom.artifactId}/ doesn't really point to anything.What should ${pom.artifactId} be?


Thanx

You have encountered an unknown error running Maven. Please help us to correct
this problem by following these simple steps:
- read the Maven FAQ at http://maven.apache.org/faq.html
- run the same command again with the '-e' parameter, eg maven -e jar
- search the maven-user archives for the error at
http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
- post the output of maven -e to JIRA at
http://jira.codehaus.org/BrowseProject.jspa?id=10030 (you must sign up first)
- run 'maven --info' and post the output as the environment to the bug above

I've checked the FAQ and can't find any clues.What am I doing wrong?
