Hi all,

I am having difficulty using archetype:generate plugin where I want it
to use an archetype stored in our internal repository. I was able to do
so using archetype:create plugin. I've a settings.xml in .m2 directory
and that's where archetype:create reads the internal repository
information but archetype:generate doesn't seem to do that.

I tried using -DarchetypeRepository but I probably am not entering the
internal repository url properly. This is what I am typing and I am
getting Build Error because it can't find my archetype 

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeArtifactId=default-archetype
-DarchetypeGroupId=default-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.0
-DarchetypeRepository=http://serveraddress/Intranet/maven-repo

http://serveraddress/Intranet/maven-repo is where archetype-default
archetype is residing

Any ideas?

thanks
