Thanks Martin. The dash seems to be the real problem and of course the
backslash is a working solution.

Generally if you are using Powershell for Maven, svn etc you end up
having to escape any arguments which start with a dash (-). The escape
character in Powershell is a backtick. So you end up with mvn
archetype:create `-DgroupId=blah `-DartifactId=blah. There's probably
an easier way but that works for me. I seem to remember posting on this
list about this when Powershell first came out (1.0) and I now think it
is more of a general Powershell thing than anything to do with Maven,
especially as I get the same thing with Subversion. I've scripted most
of our build with Powershell on top of Maven, so it certainly works with
2.0.9 if you add in the escaping.

Subject: Re: Maven Microsoft Windows PowerShell
Hi James,
I never tried PowerShell before. Just thought that it will work out of
the box.
The suggestion with the quotes (also mentioned by Raphaël Piéroni) just
worked fine:
mvn.bat archetype:create "-DgroupId=com.mycompany.app"
-DartifactId=my-app
I think there are also other issues regarding Maven, PowerShell and
quoting. I will make some tests and report further results here.

Marc,
It might be worth opening a JIRA for this one - I don't think PowerShell
is supported.
Had this been working correctly for you before hand? Does quoting the
arguments help?

Hi,
I'm having issues regarding using Maven 2.0.9 with Microsoft Windows
PowerShell 1.0 and JDK 1.6.0_05.
I start PowerShell and set the JAVA_HOME environment variable via
$env:JAVA_HOME = "path-to-jdk".
When I issue the command mvn -version I get the version information
displayed. Then I want to create the sample project via the following
command:
C:\Programme\apache-maven-2.0.9\bin\mvn.bat archetype:create
-DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app
I get the following error message:

If I run the command via the good old cmd.exe all works fine. Can
someone confirm this behavior?
