However currently the build hangs on:
Apologies for the noise, but I figure it's best to post what I learnt over the last few days just in case any other poor soul goes through what I did and can't find the answer via Google. It seems all my woes where down to using the system version of maven (maven2-2.0.9 in my case). The build script honours the MVN environment variable which in my case was set, this leads to undesirable behaviour including: * Not following redirects, resulting in jar files that are actually HTML files * Hanging while talking to maven proxies I should have read the building page on the Wiki more closely which does mention the source tree bundles a copy of maven - 2.2.0 (r788681) to be precise. This behaves much better and my build has started working again. Was this always the case? I seem to remember in the git-svn days I jumped through hoops to get a sufficiently modern maven packaged for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. Anyway fixed now :-) -- Alex, homepage: http://www.bennee.com/~alex/ http://www.half-llama.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Please read the OpenNMS Mailing List FAQ: http://www.opennms.org/index.php/Mailing_List_FAQ opennms-devel mailing list To *unsubscribe* or change your subscription options, see the bottom of this page: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opennms-devel
