you can force use of a specific settings file with a command-line switch I think..

Thanks for the suggestins guys, but still no luck :-(

1) Tried subdirectory of /conf
2) The above code snippet

       String uh = System.getProperty("user.home");
        System.out.println("user.home is " + uh);
        java.io.File m2 = new java.io.File(uh, ".m2");
        java.io.File settings = new java.io.File(m2, "settings_test.xml");
        settings.createNewFile();

user.home is \\FILESERVER\Users\<myLoginId>

however putting the settings.xml in \\FILESERVER\Users\<mylogin>\.m2\ <file://\\FILESERVER\Users\<mylogin>\.m2\
 >user.home=\\FILESERVER\Users\pthomas> next to the test
file settings_test.xml still doesn't work !

Also tried subdirectory of /conf

Any more ideas - this is normally something that just works, I must be
missing something simple here ?

afaik teh algorithm is this:
String uh = System.getproperty("user.home");
File m2 = new File(uh, ".m2");
File settings = new File(m2, "settings.xml");

so probably maven is looking at some other place for your settings
than you expect it to..

Hi there I'm used to Maven2 picking up the settings.xml from

C:\Documents and Settings\<login>\.m2

when in a windows environment, however I'm using Maven2 at a new company
now, and for some reason the user's settings.xml doesn't seem to be
being
picked up.


I have

<profiles>
 <profile>
   <id>developer_me</id>
   <properties>
     <JBossHome>D:/java/jboss-4.0/server/default/deploy</JBossHome>
   </properties>
  </profile>
 </profiles>

  <activeProfiles>
      <activeProfile>developer_me</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>

yet when I do

mvn projecthelp:active-profiles

the profile isn't listed and the properties are unset.

Any idea how I can verify where Maven2 is looking for the user's
settings.xml.

I did create the .m2 directory and settings.xml manually.

PS. The conf/settings.xml is working.
