Almost there

I'm trying to create my Maven 1 deployment process with Maven 2. I think I'm almost there. The end result is to be a tarball with the project jar and all dependencies in a lib directory and a scripts directory which has the startup script that calls a generated file that sets the

Re: Need of serious help (almost there!)

Just noticed my previous test was run from maven 1 install path, but it's the same from maven 2 install path: C:\Program Files\maven-2.0-alpha-1>test.bat ~dps0: C:\PROGRA~1\MAVEN-~1.0-A\bin\test.bat ~dp0: C:\Program Files\maven-2.0-alpha-1\bin\ ~s0: C:\PROGRA~1\MAVEN-~1.0-A\bin\test.bat ~0: test.

Re: Need of serious help (almost there!)

Even more strange... Seems like the same batch file misbehaves when run from a path that contains space! I got the correct output from test.bat when tested from a path with no spaces. I even added the following lines to test.bat: if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" set M2_HOME=%~dps0.. echo M2_HOME = %M2_

Re: Need of serious help (almost there!)

Can you try this on win2000? Create test.bat: @echo off echo ~dps0: %~dps0 echo ~dp0: %~dp0 echo ~s0: %~s0 echo ~0: %~0 echo ~dps0\..: %~dps0\.. echo ~dps0..: %~dps0.. Then run: "cmd /C test.bat" I get... ~dps0: c:\home\Brett\ ~dp0: c:\home\Brett\ ~s0: c:\home\Brett\test.bat ~0: test.bat ~dps0\

Re: Need of serious help (almost there!)

I'm no batch file expert either and I thought it's was strange, but here's what happens with the original line `if "%OS%"=="Windows_NT" SET M2_HOME=%~dps0\..`: M2_HOME = C:\PROGRA~1\MAVEN-~1.0-A\bin\m2.bat\.. which points to bin. I also thought it was supposed to return the directory, but it's

Re: Need of serious help (almost there!)

I am not yet using maven 2 (still on maven 1.0.2), so I am not sure 100% but if maven 2 bin is in your windows path, it seems you should try typing "m2 -v" instead of "maven -v". Dave "The Gerb" wrote: Many thanks to Daniel Or and Mykel Alvis. Both of you guys hit the nail on the head! It was t

Many thanks to Daniel Or and Mykel Alvis. Both of you guys hit the nail on the head! It was the spaces in the path. Though I still cant just type "maven -v" at the command prompt... I have to use the trick shown me by Patrick Roumanoff (thanks Pat, been using computers for many many moons... neve
