When I install (mvn install) or deploy (mvn deploy) an archetype under Mac Os x, it seems that Maven do not use .jar extention but an .maven-archetype extention.
The next problem is that when trying to create a project from the archetype, maven seeks the archetype.jar. So the command fails. I've try the same operation under windows, everything is ok. mvn install ou mvn deploy generate a jar file. Does somebody can reproduce the bug on its Mac ? Step to reproduce : - mvn archetype:generate ( select anyone archetype ) - cd <myproject> - mvn archetype:create-from-project - cd target/generated-source/archetype - mvn install My configuration : Maven version: 2.0.9 or 2.2 Java version: 1.6.0_20 OS name: "mac os x" version: "10.6.3" arch: "x86_64" Family: "mac" thanks Gildas
