Spring Gemfire POM Error

[hughbrien]

I am attempting to run the Spring-Gemfire demo from the command line using the instructions and I keep running into a problem.
To build the sample, use the following command:

# mvn clean package
To run the sample, use:
# mvn exec:java

I am in ./samples/hello-world

Macintosh-6:hello-world hbrien$ mvn clean package

Hi,

Could you try Maven 2.0.x since this is what we've been testing against (as mentioned in the readme.txt)? I have a feeling that 2.2 might not like something in your maven repo?

Thanks,
