I have been using a pom file for 0.8.0 that I hand-edited from the one generated with sbt make:pom. Now that there's a version up on maven central, I'm trying to use that.
It looks like the pom file hosted now on maven central, is invalid for maven? I'm looking at this: http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/apache/kafka/kafka_2.8.0/0.8.0-beta1/kafka_2.8.0-0.8.0-beta1.pom It has 2 <dependencies> sections, which causes this error: [WARNING] Invalid POM for org.apache.kafka:kafka_2.8.0:jar:0.8.0-beta1, transitive dependencies (if any) will not be available, enable debug logging for more details: 1 problem was encountered while building the effective model [FATAL] Non-parseable POM /Users/jbr/.m2/repository/org/apache/kafka/kafka_2.8.0/0.8.0-beta1/kafka_2.8.0-0.8.0-beta1.pom: Duplicated tag: 'dependencies' (position: START_TAG seen ...</dependencies>\n <dependencies>... @36:19) @ line 36, column 19 for project It seems the offending section is: <dependencies> <exclude module="javax"/> <exclude module="jmxri"/> <exclude module="jmxtools"/> <exclude module="mail"/> <exclude module="jms"/> <dependency org="org.apache.zookeeper" name="zookeeper" rev="3.3.4"> <exclude org="log4j" module="log4j"/> <exclude org="jline" module="jline"/> </dependency> </dependencies> Anyway, since I haven't heard of others having this issue, I'm a bit perplexed. Is everyone just downloading and hosting their own hand edited version of the is pom file? I'm using maven 3.0.3 if that's relevant. Jason
