Hi, I am new user to Maven and was going through guide to start creating a smalls project. I have installed Maven version: 2.0.7 and i am using it with Java version: 1.4.2_06 on red hat linux. mvn --version shows the right version so i am assuming maven is installed correctly. I tried doing following:
mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes-DgroupId= com.devsid.app -DartifactId=my-app But its failing with: Reason: Unable to download the artifact from any repository org.apache.maven.archetype:maven-archetype:pom:1.0-alpha-5 from the specified remote repositories: central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) I checked the repository manually and found out there is nothing like 1.0-alpha-5 version on repository so i tried supplying -DarchetypeVersion= 1.0-alpha-4 also but its still not working. Please let me know if i have missed any settings or what should i do to get this working ? ----Sid
