Hi Roman, Sorry for the late reply. I was sick whole of last week, thanks to my kids. You would have got a quicker response if you had emailed to the user group.
I believe you have missed the <repositories> tag. I don't hold my repository information in the POM. I normally declare it in the settings.xml of the user. <repositories> <repository> <id>central</id> <name>Internal Mirror of Central Repository</name> <url>http://my.test.com/central</url> </repository> <repositories> Thanks Lakshman > -----Original Message----- > From: Roman Gelfand [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, 14 September 2006 4:13 PM > To: Lakshman Srilakshmanan > Subject: RE: central Repository and mirrorOf > > Hi Lakshman, > > Could you please help me? > > I put <repository> tag in my POM file, as > > ******************************************** > <build> > <sourceDirectory>checkouts</sourceDirectory> > </build> > <repository> > <id>central</id> > <name>Internal Mirror of Central Repository</name> > <url>http://my.test.com/central</url> > </repository> > <dependencies> > <dependency> > ************************************************ > > > and I get the following error: > ************************************************ > [INFO] Scanning for projects... > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [ERROR] FATAL ERROR > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] Error building POM (may not be this project's POM). > > > Project ID: unknown > POM Location: C:\quickbuild-1.0.9\working\root\BAC\Foundations\pom.xml > > Reason: Parse error reading POM.
