Re: Problems with dependencies

[Brian Ewins]

I can't see any other replies to this so...
You appear to have an extra '/' at the end of maven.repo.remote. Try:
maven.repo.remote=http://sxserver.semandex.net/maven
If you looked in the logs of your webserver, you'd find it would be 
reporting errors for
http://sxserver.semandex.net/maven//jdom/jars/jdom-b8.jar

(note the double slash in the middle). Of course the problem could be 
that you simply don't have the jdom jar sitting there?

Sometimes running with 'maven -X' throws out a lot more useful debug 
information.

Hope this helped,

I downloaded Maven a week ago and have a really hard time getting any of
my projects converted. First of all, I can't find any documentation
which gives a high-level overview on how it is supposed to work (even
finding any useful information on the web site was a bit of a challenge
- now that I did find it seems obvious but not going in).
Anyhow, my problem is that all my projects depend on external libraries.
I cut one down to only depend on one library (jdom.jar). I added the
following to my project.xml file:
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>jdom</groupId>
      <artifactId>jdom</artifactId>
      <version>b8</version>
      <url>http://www.jdom.org/</url>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
I also added the following to my project.properties file:

maven.repo.remote=http://sxserver.semandex.net/maven/

When I start maven with:

C:\src\my\SxUtil-2>maven dist:build
 __  __
|  \/  |__ Jakarta _ ___
| |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \  ~ intelligent projects ~
|_|  |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_|  v. 1.0-beta-9-SNAPSHOT
dist:build-setup:
    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\src\my\SxUtil-2\target\distributions
xdoc:init:
    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\src\my\SxUtil-2\target\generated-xdocs
    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\src\my\SxUtil-2\target\docs
java:prepare-filesystem:
    [mkdir] Created dir: C:\src\my\SxUtil-2\target\classes
java:compile:
    ......
--------------

It does NOT download the jdom jar file.
(http://sxserver.semandex.net/maven/jdom/jars/jdom-b8.jar does return
the jar).
I saw an attempt for downloading once (before I had the jar in place)

As Maven seems to be able to replace a lot of my ad-hoc project
management setups I would love to get it going and put it through its
paces, but learning the first few steps is always the biggest challenge.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
