James, Are the three directory structures you describe different projects (each with own project.xml) or do they overlap? If they overlap this is the first thing to change. I can't find the reference on the FAQ or elsewhere in the web site, but I am pretty sure maven strongly advises against creating several artifacts (jar, war etc.) from a single project, which I think makes perfect sense but it can be a hurdle to understanding maven for some people I have had conversations with.
Assuming that they are different projects, you should be able to build the EJB and the WAR files already? In the respective project dir you should run 'ejb:install' and 'war:install'. This will build the EJB and WAR files and place them into your local repository. For more help, check the EJB and WAR plugin reference pages at: http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/ejb/ and http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/war/ Then in the EAR project's project.xml you need to specify these dependencies for the EJB and WAR projects with some special properties to say they should be bundled in the EAR file. It will look something like this: <dependency> <groupId>MyProj</groupId> <artifactId>MyProj-ejb</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> <type>ejb</type> <properties> <ear.bundle>true</ear.bundle> </properties> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>MyProj</groupId> <artifactId>MyProj-web</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> <type>war</type> <properties> <ear.appxml.war.context-root>/MyWeb</ear.appxml.war.context-root> <ear.bundle>true</ear.bundle> </properties> </dependency> Finally run the goal 'ear' (or 'ear:install') to create the EAR file. More help on the EAR plugin is available at: http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/ear/ Hope this helps, Tim On Mon, 14 Feb 2005 15:49:35 -0800 (PST), James Adams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I want to build an EAR file which contains a WAR and > EJB JAR.
