Thanks for the info Muhwas. Perhaps you can post the link to the faq (or even the usage page where it's laid out) to them so they know how to fix it. If you want to make it work for yourself, just remove the <executions><execution></execution></executions> tags from the dependency plugin config and leave behind all the <configuration> contents. Or you could just find the artifact in your local repo and unpack it yourself ;-)

I am following their instructions. According to instruction they said go to sample directory and run "mvn" and when built successfully run "mvn dependency:unpack". This will create target\distribution folder and copy tuscany run time enviornment. But when i am running "mvn dependency:unpack" and getting error. [0] inside the definition for plugin: 'maven-dependency-plugin'specify the foll wing: <configuration> ... <artifactItems>VALUE</artifactItems> </configuration>. They didn't specify any thing what to put in articactsItems. I also posted this question on tuscany mailing list but no response so i thought may be i can get help from maven list. thank you, muhwas --- "Brian E.
