Multi Module CVS Checkout
Hi Everyone - I'm having a problem checking out the code from my multi
module project - it's very frustrating and I've been working on it for a
few days, so any help anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Here's the background - I have a multi module project where the parent
project is just used for meta data- in other words there is no code
associated with the parent, it's just used to configure settings common
to all child projects. It builds nothing and its packaging is set to
POM.
I'm trying to check out my code from CVS
--
1. If I put the SCM element in the child pom's and remove it from the
parent then run mvn scm:checkout from the parent directory, I get the
error:
Cannot run checkout command :
Embedded error: Can't load the scm provider.
You need to define a connectionUrl parameter
I see no connectionUrl parameter within the SCM documentation.
--
2. If I put the SCM element in the parent pom and remove it from the
child pom's then run the mvn scm:checkout from the parent directory, I
get the error:
[ERROR] cvs server: cannot find module `reviewmanager' - ignored
cvs server: cannot find module `reviewmanager' - ignored
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
Here it's trying to checkout the artifactId of reviewmanager, which is
the artifactId for the parent. However since the packaging is set to
POM, I'd think Maven would skip the parent knowing that it's a project
for meta data only
My scm configuration for the top 2 tries is structured like this:
scm
connectionscm:cvs:pserver:herestheuser:heresthepassw...@server.domain:
/ABC/DEF:${artifactId}/connection
developerConnectionscm:cvs:pserver:herestheuser:heresthepassw...@serve
r.domain:/ABC/DEF:${artifactId}/developerConnection
tagHEAD/tag
/scm
--
3. If I keep the configuration in the parent and remove the artifactId
from the connection / developerConnection and then run mvn scm:checkout
then I get the following error:
Cannot run checkout command
Embedded error: Exception while executing SCM command
Username isn't defined.
The scm config for this last attempt is like this:
scm
connectionscm:cvs:pserver:herestheuser:heresthepassw...@server.domain:
/ABC/DEF/connection
developerConnectionscm:cvs:pserver:herestheuser:heresthepassw...@serve
r.domain:/ABC/DEF/developerConnection
tagHEAD/tag
/scm
--
4. If I take the same configuration (as used in the top 2 examples With
the ${artifactId}) and put it in any of the child pom's and then run the
mvn scm:checkout from the Child Directory, then it works fine.
This seems like it would be a very common usecase so I'm surprised I
can't find more information about it on the web. Maybe I'm doing a bad
job searching.

multi module scm checkout
Hi - I have a multi module project structured like this
Review Manager
--- Review Manager JAR
--- Review Manager HL7 JAR
--- Review Manager WAR
The parent's pom.xml has no scm configuration
The 3 child pom's use the following scm configuration:
scm
connectionscm:cvs:pserver:fakeusern...@fakeserver:/repo/path:${artifac
tId}/connection
/scm
When I run the mvn scm:checkout command at the parent level, I get the
following:

If I remove the parent element from any of the child projects then I can
run the same mvn scm:checkout command without any problem.
I'd appreciate if somebody could help me figure out what steps need to
be taken to make all checkouts occur when the command is run from the
parent project.
Thanks
Tom
