Great! ;-)

I was first getting the error that Sergey referenced and which I first
referenced in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=geronimo-dev&m=115653241007061&w=2


So was I.

I was actually proposing skipping the tests to get around that error
because when I added the getName() method I hit the MalformedURL error
that Jacek mentioned (and I posted about here).

I wasn't aware that this was a known problem and changing the repository
path would resolve it.


The first time we hit this was in OpenEJB 3 and Dave B. fixed it
easily for it was only in one unit test. I remember Dave mentioned it
had been fixed in OpenEJB 2, too, but seems it was not (I guess Dave
had yanked MS Windows and installed MacOS or Linux ;-))

Thank you Jacek for pointing me to the openejb
issue!  I changed my repo and now it seems that I can build successfully
both without the getName() method errors and without the MalformedURL
exceptions.


Does it mean that once you set maven.repo.local to a non-spaced path
the build worked well?

That's correct (see my actual setting further down).


Does anybody know if there is an environment variable that I can set for
the m2 repo so that I don't have to modify the build scripts?


You can run m2 with localRepository set in ~/.m2/settings.xml as
described at http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/maven-settings/settings.html#class_settings.
Look at localRepository setting. It should do the trick. Give it a
whirl and report back (so I won't have to dig into surefire plugin and
fix the classpath issue ;-) I just can't believe it's merely us who
experience the issue!).

I actually took a somewhat different route. I updated my MAVEN_OPTS environment variable (which I had already set for the heap size) to include maven.repo.local. For the most part this worked fine with one exception. When you run a "bootstrap clean" it currently assumes that your repository is located at "${user.home}/.m2/repository" and deletes that directory. With my MAVEN_OPTS setting and by manually cleaning my actual m2 repo location prior to running "bootstrap" or "bootstrap clean" everything worked fine.

For reference, my current MAVEN_OPTS is set as follows:

set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -Dmaven.repo.local=c:/m2repo
