RE: Archiva vs. Nexus

I always opt for 8.3 filename e.g.

dir /AD /X
C:/PROGRA~1


Nexus jettyServlet allow you to site:deploy index.html,css,js,jpg,png (to show 
the suits what you're working on)


Many Thanks for your extraordinary help mate!

 Alternatively surround long file names/paths with quotes

 I use Archiva and it's brilliant - just moved to 2.0.1 that seem a little

 v1.3.6 is very stable and earlier upgrades have worked without any issues
 
 v2.0.n now support stagings but only operates on the entire repository -
 Archiva is working on future enhancements to this where individual releases

So I downloaded Nexus 1.9.2, watched the video, read the user manual on 
starting Nexus, entered


C:\Program Files 
(Open)\Sonatype\nexus-oss-webapp-1.9.2-bundle\nexus-oss-webapp-1.9.2bin\jsw\windows-x86-64\nexus 
start


and got back

First impressions are very important - this one was pretty bad. How much

Maybe Archiva actually works according to the documentation...

I'd run it from a directory that does not contain spaces or other non

parenthesis, and a  in it.

Nexus is a very robust and easy to use installation that gets a lot of 
attention.  You are not supposed to waste time on installing it, but having 
an open mind to issues that are often found in cross-platform software is 
helpful.  Especially when you are running it on Windows.

This is a bug, it is sure.
Probably due to spaces in your path (programs don't love them in general).

Follow the installation procedure carefully as it has some bits about

If you pay attention to the instructions, you will not have any problems.
The user interface is very simple and easy to understand.

2011-07-19 Thread Eric Kolotyluk
Is it easy to move a Nexus repository from one system to the next? I was 
thinking of using my personal workstation to host Nexus, because it is 
more powerful than any server we have, and I don't want to have to go 
find a server with spare cycles.


Would it make more sense for me to create a VMWare virtual machine 
called 'nexus' and run it there? That way if I want to move the 
repository to another machine I can move the VM. Does anyone have any 
preconfigured VMs with Nexus already installed?


If I am running in a VM, would it make more sense to run it with Linux 
so I don't have to pay for another Windows License?

 Subject: Re: Archiva vs. Nexus

 Is it easy to move a Nexus repository from one system to the next? I was
 thinking of using my personal workstation to host Nexus, because it is
 more powerful than any server we have, and I don't want to have to go
 find a server with spare cycles.

 Would it make more sense for me to create a VMWare virtual machine
 called 'nexus' and run it there? That way if I want to move the
 repository to another machine I can move the VM. Does anyone have any
 preconfigured VMs with Nexus already installed?

 If I am running in a VM, would it make more sense to run it with Linux
 so I don't have to pay for another Windows License?

 Cheers, Eric

  I am really happy with Nexus but have not tried Archiva.
  Follow the installation procedure carefully as it has some bits about
  directories that are not intuitive.
  If you pay attention to the instructions, you will not have any problems.
  The user interface is very simple and easy to understand.
  The support is very good in the Nexus forum and to a certain extent
  here as well.
  Documentation is clear and abundant.
 
  Good Luck.

  Thanks for that clarity everyone.

  That being the case, Nexus all the way.

My 2 cents: I'm very new to Maven and its repository and I found Nexus very
easy to install, set up, and use. I haven't tried Archiva though
