I would say, the default path in org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg is right. Looking in user.home/.m2/repository, I find the respective jar in the right place:
~/.m2/repository/com/packt/sample/1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/sample-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar The settings file in ~/.m2 had no extension. I added .xml and tried again, but nothing better. My steps: 1. I imported the sample projects of the book into eclipse 2. I run mvn install on Chapter2/recipe2/sample/pom.xml - succeeded 3. In karaf i did bundle:install -s mvn:com.packt/sample in different variations I always get the error message Unable to install and karaf.log as provided in one of the previous emails.
