Hi,
this error occurs if one does not create a correct project.properties file
in the root of the generator directory. Take the project.properties from
the tutorial, put it where the tutorial says, and run "maven torque" from
the base directory of the generator. In particular, you have to provide a
valid value of the torque.database property.
I got the sample project up and running when I did exactly what the
tutorial said. Please do not change too much at the beginning, start as the
tutorial says and change one thing at a time after you got it running.
