A couple of weeks ago I sat down and started doing an investigation of AppFuse given all the wonderful things Matt has been saying about Atlassian and how the appfuse project development tools are now integrated with crowd.
One of the things I was really excited to see in today's release was the support for multiple module source support with the 2.0 rc1. The generation has presented quite a few hurdles.. here is my workflow: I started out with a struts2 modular framework by running the following command: mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.appfuse.archetypes -DarchetypeArtifactId=appfuse-modular-struts -DremoteRepositories=http://static.appfuse.org/releases -DarchetypeVersion=2.0-rc1 -DgroupId=com.devvine.crm -DartifactId=crm [INFO] Archetype created in dir: /Users/jstepka/Projects/devvine/crm [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 2 seconds [INFO] Finished at: Wed Sep 05 16:20:34 EST 2007 [INFO] Final Memory: 4M/8M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everything works out well enough... following the instructions on the quick start guide, I need to run 'mvn install' to build the project before I can run jetty: jstepka-osx:~/Projects/devvine/crm jstepka$ mvn install [INFO] Scanning for projects...

Moving on I decided okay, I will just run the application through my IDE, this is the standard approach I have taken in the past: jstepka-osx:~/Projects/devvine/crm jstepka$ mvn idea:idea [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] Reactor build order: [INFO] AppFuse Modular Application [INFO] AppFuse Modular Application - Core [INFO] AppFuse Modular Application - Web (Struts 2) [INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'idea'. ...

[INFO] Reactor build order: [INFO] AppFuse Modular Application [INFO] AppFuse Modular Application - Core [INFO] AppFuse Modular Application - Web (Struts 2) [INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'appfuse'.

I found that this can be fixed by getting all of the sources before building the idea project... so I ran the quick-start commands in the following order: mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.appfuse.archetypes -DarchetypeArtifactId=appfuse-modular-struts -DremoteRepositories=http://static.appfuse.org/releases -DarchetypeVersion=2.0-rc1 -DgroupId=com.devvine.crm -DartifactId=crm mvn appfuse:full-source mvn install mvn idea:idea Wonderful! Everything is there... Next step was to see if everything would compile, which idea seemed to be non-cooperative. I kept running into 'DataSource ORM Annotations Problems'. After searching through the idea forums I was able to find I need to do the following: Removed the "Data source ORM Annotations Problems" inspection ("Settings" -> "Errors" -> "Java EE issues" -> "DataSource ORM Annotations Problems"). After doing this on a 'IDE Profiles -> Default' settings I was finally in the green. I then setup tomcat inside of idea by configuring a default web-module with an exploded directory that is synchronized to my code changes. With this in place I pointed my browser window at tomcat and all was good and I was able to login.
