Hi! The last few days I have been reading about maven and how it can help me in my job. I have succesfuly installed codehaus eclipse plugin and i have downloaded dependencys for my projects (connection to internet works fine).
The next step was to create a network repository so that co-workers and I could share the jars that we download from the internet and have less lag when in need of a jar. I THINK I have configured maven-proxy ok but I DONT think its working correctly. This is what I did: 1) Downloaded maven-proxy and the config file 2) Adjust config file to my needs. 3) Start maven-proxy. After that I started to try to configure the eclipse plugin so that it uses my repository. To do that I had to copy the conf.xml file from maven folder to the root of my local repository and I added the following lines: <mirror> <id>maven-proxy</id> <name>Maven-Proxy Mirror</name> <url>http://j2eedesar3:9999/repository</url> <mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>maven-proxy</id> <name>Maven-Proxy Mirror</name> <url>http://j2eedesar3:9999/repository</url> <mirrorOf>snapshots</mirrorOf> </mirror>where j2eedesar3 is the name of the machine where maven-proxy is running.When I view maven-proxy's log I see the requests made from my machine to maven-proxy but I in the filesystem I don't see any downloaded jars. Can anybody help me? At the end of this mail a copy my maven-proxy config file. Thanks!!
