Hi, I followed the instruction here. http://stanbol.apache.org/docs/trunk/tutorial.html
With one exception, where it says "From the source directory run", 3rd step, I assume you meant from the stanbol top level directory, where the top level pom.xml resides. After this the "mvn clean install" fails, firstly because there is a solr dependency on 2 restlet jars, discussed on this list at length, here http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/stanbol-dev/201304.mbox/%3ccaa7lao26hskuvrxsj2hrz+a2hxhi0hacmeipkhv-xttuzm+...@mail.gmail.com%3E ( so why have a broken pom.xml in your distribution that does not address the problem!?) Searched for an answer, found one here - http://restlet.org/download/maven, but neither approach worked for me so ended up copying the jar files to my local repository, that worked. Then finally I needed to find and download the opennlp dependency on jwnl. Then ran this command to add to my local repository mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=jwnl -DartifactId=jwnl -Dversion=1.3.3 -Dfile=/home/david/jwnl-1.3.3.jar -Dpackaging=jar -Durl=file:///home/david/.m2/repository. Now it builds. So are my experiences normal or is the maven install broken? If this is common then hopefully this helps someone going thru the same experience. Thanks, David
