Good to know that that web exists!
Before receiving your email I took a shot at it and included the following
in my pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.commons.lang</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
<version>${commons.lang.version}</version>
</dependency>
But Maven complained saying that the artifact didn't exist, and to run:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.commons.lang
-DartifactId=commons-lang -Dversion=2.3 -Dpackaging=jar
-Dfile=C:\eclipseeuropa\workspace\sigic\target\sigic-1.0-SNAPSHOT\WEB-INF\lib\commons-lang-2.3.jar
Which I did and it now works! Unfortunately my test fails. :(
But that's my problem, not yours!
Cheers for all your help!
