I am having trouble accessing the settings.xml when running the following
command on my windows box:
mvn -Duser.home=j:\joe_user compile
where "j:\joe_user" is a samba mounted drive to my unix box in which the .m2
directory exists. I've run with the -X switch so I can see what's happening:
mvn -Duser.home=j:\joe_user -X compile
[DEBUG] Reading user settings from c:\Documents and
Settings\joe_user\.m2\settings.xml
[DEBUG] Reading global settings from
j:\joe_user\maven\apache-maven-3.0\conf\settings.xml
[DEBUG] Using local repository at j:\joe_user\.m2\repository
I've only included the interesting debug messages and you can see that I am
using version 3.0 as my M2_HOME is set to j:\joe_user\maven\apache-maven-3.0
Things run as expected when I copy the settings.xml file from my unix box onto
my windows box into the appropriate directory OR if i add the -s option:
mvn -Duser.home=j:\joe_user -s j:\joe_user\.m2\settings.xml compile
My question is: based on the maven documentation, it appears that a user's
install is specified at ${user.home}/.m2/settings.xml therefore, should
specifying the user.home via -D option point to the correct location and NOT
the home directory (under windows)?
I apologize if this is answered elsewhere. I did perform several searches
prior to sending this email.
thanks
bill
