I can't get this to work except in one of my projects, either. Using -npr or --no-plugin-registry did not help. I also have maven-install-plugin v2.0-beta-1 installed. The maven-metadata-central.xml in the repository shows 2.0-beta-1 as the only version.
Is there a form of this that can be used to place an item in the global repository? I have a number of jars which I end up needing to have available for people to build our projects and it would be nice to have a means like this to install new jars for automatic download rather than requiring each developer to issue a bunch of "m2 install:install-file" commands any time they need to clean out their repository. -----Original Message----- From: John Casey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 28, 2005 14:45 To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: [m2-b2] install:install-file fails without pom -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm unable to replicate this behavior on my local working copy. Can you try running with the '--no-plugin-registry' to see if this helps? You may have an older version of the plugin which may have been created with a faulty plugin-plugin version...
