we seem to be hitting a few road blocks migrating to turbine 2.3 (we're going from a slightly modified turbine 2.1). we're using the jakarta-turbine-2.3.tar.gz from the apache mirrors.

the first issue seems to be with the torque maven plugin and with maven in general.  
we're not very schooled on maven much, and have had one heck of a time getting the 
turbine source tree to build with it.  we're behind a firewall and can't easily get 
out (http proxy is avail).  we've only really had one person on our group to get 
turbine to build, and then we just took that exact maven folder and maven repository 
to others machines to build.  could someone tell me the specific environment (maven 
version, etc) that works nicely with turbine? do other experience maven difficulties 
building turbine?

next, we have encountered an issue with turbine's handling of our actions method to call. for 
instance, on a form we have an input button called: name="eventSubmit_doInsert" on a 
form of:
<form name="fee_action_form" method="POST" action="$link.setAction( "feemaint.FeeAction" 
)">

with turbine 2.1, this turbine would run the doInsert() method of the FeeAction class. With turbine 2.3, we could only get the doPerform method of that class to run. someone in our group mentioned that this was fixed after the 2.3 release of turbine and that if we could get the latest from the 2.3 branch, we'd have the fix. has anyone else noticed this behavior with the released turbine 2.3? and how active is the maintenance on 2.3? do most people run from the lastest cvs version of the turbine they're using? we don't have good access to an external cvs server (turbine's), and the only thing i see for the nightlies are 2.3.1-dev versions, or patches for turbine 2.3 which seem to predate the 2.3 release.


Maven 1.0 was released fairly recently - this is the best version to use.

I would recommend checking out the TORQUE_3_1_BRANCH of torque and rebuilding and installing the maven plugin - in fact this is the only way of getting the plugin at present. There are instructions at: http://db.apache.org/torque/maven-howto.html

As you are using intake I would recommend that you also check out the TURBINE_2_3_BRANCH of turbine as there are a number of intake related bug fixes that will make life easier for you.

I think others have already highlighted the solution to your action problem.

The Source Repository page on the turbine page mentions CVSGrab which can be used to checkout the source from behind a corporate firewall (I have never tried this).
