Hi, My build of Geronimo server branch 2.2 is successful. Great. Thanks a lot to Keven, Donald, Joe, Jeff and Forrest <https://webmail.mda.ca/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/building-apache-geronimo.html> This is a big system and I need some time to learn it.

If you really want to help me out, please remove your local repo completely, build from the ground and tell me how many problems you find. Not 1, not 2, not 3 even not 4, many, as far as I can tell you. Anyway, I will monitor the trunk to see if someday I can compile it. The trunk is where I should start. Hi Fei Li, There are multiple threads on multiple mailing lists for this same problem. There was a general problem that seems to be a combination of an issue with configuration changes to the maven repository at maven2-repository.dev.java.net <http://maven2-repository.dev.java.net/> and potentially a bug in the maven dependency report plugin. See http://old.nabble.com/Stuck%2C-cannot-build%2C-repository-down---td24941611.html for additional information.

Maven wrongly assumes that this is the actual file that was requested and persists it as such. - Using Maven 2.2.1 (I was using 2.0.10) doesn't handle the redirects any better and so doesn't fix the problem. - For tags/2.1.4 maven 2.2.1 also causes other problems so it's best to stick with maven 2.1.10 of you are building Geronimo 2.1.* - org/apache/yoko/yoko/1.0/yoko-1.0.pom includes a repository list that points to https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repositorid of java.net <http://java.net/> so this is why we are pulling in that repo - If I add the following to my settings.xml for maven I can avoid the redirect (and hence avoid the bogus poms/jars) and get beyond this problem to build Geronimo 2.1.4 using maven 2.0.10. <mirrors> <mirror> <id>java.net</id> <name>Mirror of https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/</name> <url>http://download.java.net/maven/1/</url> <mirrorOf>java.net</mirrorOf> </mirror> </mirrors> Now documented at http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/building-apache-geronimo.html If you are interested in working on the development of Geronimo 3.0, you'd be more than welcome. If you are interested in using Geronimo, I would not recommend using trunk. You should be using geronimo/server/branches/2.2 or geronimo/server/tags/2.1.4, instead. --kevan
