I reproduced it.The problem seems to be in jetty. To reproduce : An empty local repo, JDK 1.4, maven 2.1.0-RC3
In archetype/pom.xml you change the maven-parent version to 11 (instead of 11-SNAPSHOT). You launch a build When you'll execute tests in "Building Maven Archetype Common" you'll have a missing dependency (org.apache.maven.archetype:archetype-packaging:jar:2.0-alpha-5-SNAPSHOT) and the following stacktrace : java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.lang.StringBuffer.append(Ljava/lang/CharSequence;II)Ljava/lang/StringBuffer; at org.mortbay.util.URIUtil.compactPath(URIUtil.java:544) at org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext.isProtectedTarget(WebAppContext.java:845) at org.mortbay.jetty.handler.ContextHandler.handle(ContextHandler.java:724) at org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext.handle(WebAppContext.java:405) at org.mortbay.jetty.handler.ContextHandlerCollection.handle(ContextHandlerCollection.java:206) at org.mortbay.jetty.handler.HandlerCollection.handle(HandlerCollection.java:114) at org.mortbay.jetty.handler.HandlerWrapper.handle(HandlerWrapper.java:152) at org.mortbay.jetty.Server.handle(Server.java:324) at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpConnection.handleRequest(HttpConnection.java:505) at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpConnection$RequestHandler.headerComplete(HttpConnection.java:829) at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpParser.parseNext(HttpParser.java:513) at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpParser.parseAvailable(HttpParser.java:211) at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpConnection.handle(HttpConnection.java:380) at org.mortbay.io.nio.SelectChannelEndPoint.run(SelectChannelEndPoint.java:395) at org.mortbay.thread.QueuedThreadPool$PoolThread.run(QueuedThreadPool.java:488) [ERROR] The desired archetype does not exist (org.apache.maven.test:test-project-2:1.0) But the error is perhaps in a jetty used for integration tests ? I don't have the time to investigate tonight. cheers Arnaud On Tue, Mar 17, 2009 at 11:35 PM, Arnaud HERITIER <aherit...@gmail.com>wrote: > I tried to build the archetype sub project with jdk 1.4 / 2.1.0 RC3I can > try to reproduce it.
