As a recommendation, do not paste logs or config files in a mailing list. It
is very annoying and it is unreadable.

Use a paste service as pastebin or github's gists.

Re: Referencing modules in a sibling folder

[Sebastian Otaegui]

The modules are not more than a maven project and as such they build to an
artifact that can be in your local machine repository or in a remote
repository like maven central.

You can reference them by using the  tag as Benson said.

If you have have a multi-module project like it seems to be the case you
usually do something like:

"mvn clean install" and it will put the artifacts in your local repository
for maven use.

If you haven't already you might want to create a parent pom that agregates
the build. The maven reactor will find the right order to build them.

If you do not have a parent pom then you will have to build each project and
run 'mvn clean install'

How do I make my archetype from a multimodule project use directories that are based on the artifactId ?

[Sebastian Otaegui]

I have create an archetype using archetype:create-from-project out of a
multi module project.

The archetype-metadata.xml is attached and also as a paste below, what I
would want is that the "dir" can be modified when I run mvn
archetype:generate by using the archetypeId I provide instead of using a
fixed one. Can that be done?

http://snipt.net/feniix/archetype-metadataxml

Basically my archetype has this structure:

├── pom.xml
└── src
├── main
│   └── resources
│   ├── archetype-resources
│   │   ├── pom.xml
│   │   ├── service
│   │   │   ├── pom.xml
│   │   │   └── src
│   │   │   ├── main
│   │   │   │   └── java
│   │   │   └── test
│   │   │   ├── java
│   │   │   └── resources
│   │   ├── service-def
│   │   │   ├── pom.xml
│   │   │   └── src
│   │   │   └── main
│   │   │   └── java
│   │   └── service-web
│   │   ├── pom.xml
│   │   └── src
│   │   └── main
│   │   ├── resources
│   │   │   ├── dao-context.xml
│   │   │   ├── hibernate.cfg.xml
│   │   │   └── single-context.xml
│   │   └── webapp
│   │   └── WEB-INF
│   │   ├── jboss-web.xml
│   │   ├── remoting-servlet.xml
│   │   └── web.xml
│   └── META-INF
│   └── maven
│   └── archetype-metadata.xml
└── test
└── resources
└── projects
└── basic
├── archetype.properties
└── goal.txt



Is there any way I can make the directories service-web service and service-def
be dynamic when I use the archetype?

Thanks in advance

Re: HELP! : javax.mail >> could not find the main class

[Sebastian Otaegui]

The issue is not related to javax.mail it is with the specification of your
main class.

In mainClass you have to put the fully qualified path to the class

like in pa.cka.ge.ANNEX (if that is your main class)

And if you require javax.mail you will have to add it to the class path when
you execute it

something like:

java -cp mail.jar -jar ANNEX.jar

Re: Maven 3.0.3 generated different runtime classpath with the same POM

You can try doing 'mvn dependency:tree' to look at the artifact resolution
tree with both versions.

Just a guess from the file name.

is that a test logback configuration? if that is the case you may want to
put it in src/test/resources instead.

Re: using build profiles for WAR plugin

[Sebastian Otaegui]

One of the uses of profiles is to have different maven runtime
configurations for running different plugin configurations based on them.

See these examples
https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as/blob/master/pom.xml
https://github.com/jboss/jboss-parent-pom/blob/master/pom.xml

If you still insist on doing what you are saying one option is to do a
multimodule project.

like this:

- top level (parent pom where you define your modules)
  -  your "vanilla" war (your "real" webapp)
  -  your "qa" war
  -  your "prod" war

both the "qa" and "prod" war are built using the maven-war-plugin with the
overlay feature.
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/war-overlay.html

The people that maintains CAS (JASIG) are using that methodology.

Re: using build profiles for WAR plugin

[Sebastian Otaegui]

I think a much better solution than relying on the build tool (maven
profiles or on war overlays) is to use environment variables and bundle all
the LookAndFeel.xml in your war

I would use spring 3.1 and use the environment profiles feature.
