I attempted the workaround listed in the ticket
(http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3139), namely:
1. Create a /src/site/site.xml file in the top-level maven project, containing:
[Code]
<project>
<skin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.skins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-default-skin</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</skin>
</project>
[/Code]
Now the "mvn site site-deploy" works, however, there is no longer any links on
the left-side menu, contrary to what I'd expect from a workaround. So, that's a
bunk workaround.
So, at this stage, our project is dead in the water until someone fixes the
site plugin to get around this 'missing skin' defect. Every Hudson build fails
with this error.
Have users experienced similar issues in the past? How long does it usually
take for a critical fix to get deployed to the central maven repos? Should I
start writing the ant scripts for our projects? ;)

Subject: SiteToolException: ArtifactNotFoundException: The skin does not exist:
Unable to determine the release version
Friday, I was able to run the 'site' build on our project. This morning, I get
the following error:
[INFO] SiteToolException: ArtifactNotFoundException: The skin does not exist:
Unable to determine the release version
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.maven.skins
-DartifactId=maven-default-skin -Dversion=RELEASE -Dpackaging=jar
-Dfile=/path/to/file
Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=org.apache.maven.skins
-DartifactId=maven-default-skin -Dversion=RELEASE -Dpackaging=jar
-Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]
org.apache.maven.skins:maven-default-skin:jar:RELEASE
We've changed nothing, so something bad has occurred to something out on the
public repositories. I'm running Maven v2.2.1, with Java 1.6.0_17, on Windows
XP SP2 64bit, but it seems to occur for everyone (we all have Maven v2.2.1) on
all platforms here when attempting to call "mvn site" on our project.
I've updated this closed ticket. The ticket should be re-opened, as the same
old problem is now occurring every 'site' build for us. Can someone please fix
this soon? We cannot move forward on our project at this point.
