Hi David, Thanks for your quick response. Based on your and your fellow committer's comments on this thread, I suspected you were as frustrated as well.
To answer your immediate question: I may be best to put a short but prominent comment here: https://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDEV/index.html In addition, it may be helpful to update the build instructions included in the source and put the same warning there. At least that way, interested developers would be aware of the current issues. -Ulrich Ulrich Romahn Sr. MTS, Architect PayPal The safer, easier way to pay online 2211 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95131 Direct 408 967 6808 | Cell 650 430 4499 Skype uliromahn From: David Jencks [via Apache Geronimo] [mailto:ml-node+s328035n3676516...@n3.nabble.com] Sent: Friday, January 20, 2012 12:12 PM To: Romahn, Ulrich Subject: Re: Geronimo 3 and karaf 3 HI Ulrich, I appreciate your frustration... I've been struggling with various forms of the current problems for more than a year and think we may finally be close to a working stable solution. How and if these problems show up seems to be quite dependent on your local maven environment. For instance I have nexus installed locally and configured to never download any org.apache.geronimo.* artifacts and that has stabilized my builds considerably but concealed the problems other people are having from me. I have been trying to update the build status on the geronimo dev list, and you seem to have found the current thread on the topic. Do you have a suggestion on a better way? We also have a buildbot set up but I haven't figured out when it runs or how to trigger it. Sometimes it reports interesting errors quickly and other times it seems to just not run. thanks for your interest! david jencks On Jan 20, 2012, at 11:54 AM, uromahn wrote: > Gentlemen: > > I am following the development on Geronimo 3 for quite a while since we are > very interested in potentially using it to support a new OSGI-based server > framework that we will use here. > > Today, I have refreshed my G3 sources of trunk and was trying to build G3. > After reading through this thread and doing the build step-by-step (I had to > go into various sub-systems and do a mvn clean install first before I could > run the top level build successfully) I finally ended up with the completed > assemblies.
