Hi Ramzi, Are you developing an UI plugin? That is a different case. For some references go to: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/UI+Plugin+Tutorial
The good news is that (for UI development) you can avoid rebuilding/deploying with maven. So once your managent server is up and running, just overwrite files in client/target/generated-webapp/ with your change that you would like to try and then hit F5. I just use cp -rf ui/* client/target/generated-webapp/ Cheers, Gabor -----Original Message----- From: Ramzi Youssefi [mailto:ryouss...@gmail.com] Sent: 12 December 2014 14:42 To: dev Subject: Re: Development environment Hi Rohit, thanks for your email! that is exactly what I need! I just want to make sure that I understood what you wrote: Once I deploy the project, I need to run it with: mvn -pl client jetty:run After I did a change, I need to "stop it" maybe? and then run it again with: mvn clean install -pl ui/plugins/testPlugin/testPlugin.js, client or mvn clean install -pl ui/plugins/testPlugin, client I tried both ways and I get the following error: [ERROR] Could not find the selected project in the reactor: ui/plugins -> [Help 1] Thanks again!
