Kalle, I have made sure to carefully deploy the dll's to my repository, with the appropriate packaging parameters and all. Initially I was using mvn install:install-file, I now use mvn deploy:deploy-file, and when I look inside the repository, it all seems to be there, and it looks to be correct.
The problem I am having is still at the packaging stage, with the error handling file set... and the PlexusIoResourceCollection not found. This is the same error I had before. It also says no such archiver "dll". Does my pom look good to you? (I don't wanna clutter pasting it all again, the pom and error are in the previous message). Thanks for your help.
