All, First off, let me apologize in advance to anyone who has encountered DSpace Maven build issues yesterday or today. These build errors sometimes occur when running 'mvn package' and look similar to the following:
"[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact. Couldn't find a version in [1.7.0.1] to match range [1.6.0.0,1.7.0.0) org.dspace:dspace-api-lang:jar:null" Unfortunately, our global DSpace Maven settings were accidentally messed up yesterday, through no real fault of our own. Essentially, this occurred via a series of issues located during our attempt to release DSpace 1.7.0 Release Candidate 1. During our release, we discovered our old route of getting DSpace Maven build packages published worldwide was unfortunately discontinued without our knowledge (the third party service we were using just stopped syncing with our servers without notifying us). Because our old release process was ceased, over the past few days we quickly migrated to a different route of publishing Maven releases via SonaType (http://www.sonatype.com/), so that we could try to release DSpace 1.7.0 Release Candidate 1 in time for this week's DSpace 1.7 Testathon. This new route via SonaType has now unfortunately backfired on us, as SonaType accidentally overwrote our global Maven settings for past versions of DSpace software. This means that re-building/re-installing of all 1.5.x and 1.6.x versions is likely affected (unless you happen to have a local cache of the previous Maven settings to work from). (Please note: Although this affects re-building / re-installing of DSpace 1.5.x and 1.6.x versions, it will not affect the stability of your currently running DSpace repository. Your existing DSpace repository will continue to function as normal -- you will just be unable to rebuild DSpace if you are doing local development work.) We are currently working with SonaType to try to resolve these issues for everyone. We apologize for the inconvenience -- it is obviously affecting us all. We hope to have this resolved as soon as possible. I'll send an update to this notice as soon as we've come to a resolution. - Tim -- Tim Donohue Technical Lead for DSpace Project DuraSpace.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.
