maven dependency unavailable

[guenni]

Hello,

I'm using Eclipse with SVN and Maven2 plugin. I've checked out spring batch from the repository and tried to run the maven install.

The following problem occured:

30.08.07 13:59:30 CEST: Missing:
1) org.apache.activemq:activemq-core:jar:4.2-incubator-SNAPSHOT
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.activemq -DartifactId=activemq-core \
-Dversion=4.2-incubator-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Path to dependency:
1) org.springframework.batch:spring-batch-integration:jar:1.0-m2-SNAPSHOT
2) org.apache.activemq:activemq-core:jar:4.2-incubator-SNAPSHOT
1 required artifact is missing.
for artifact:
org.springframework.batch:spring-batch-integration:jar:1.0-m2-SNAPSHOT
from the specified remote repositories:
spring-snapshots (https://springframework.svn.sourcefo...repo-snapshots),
apache-snapshots (http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository),
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)


How can I fix this?

I have no experience with Maven2 whatsoever yet.

Thanks upfront

Günther

Have you tried running maven from the command line? The command to 'install' spring-batch would be 'mvn install', this should download all the dependencies and create the spring-batch jars within your local repository. I have personally not had a lot of luck with the Maven2 plugin for eclipse, and always use the command line, but I do know others who have used it without any problems.

I have the same error doing "mvn clean install" from the command line. Upon perusal of the apache-activemq site, it seems that the 4.2 SNAPSHOT is not there....the directory is empty

Thanks,
Edwin

It looks like there was a newer version posted to the repository:

http://people.apache.org/maven-snaps.../5.0-SNAPSHOT/

I went ahead and committed an updated the integration pom to this latest version, please post a reply if you continue to have issues.

Hi all,

thanks for the tips and help so far.

I figured out that there is a setting in the mavens settings.xml where I put http://people.apache.org/maven-snaps.../5.0-SNAPSHOT/

When I run mvn install it *is* being used, but nevertheless no success, I understand this is a frequent pain, when using maven.

Could somebody please tell me what I have to do to make this work?

It should work out of the box - no need for messing around with settings.xml or anything. I wasn't aware that the original ActiveMQ dependency had been removed from the Apache snapshots repo (which is very naughty of them if true, but seems to be what Lucas found to be the case). The 5.0 ActiveMQ release is definitely in the repo - you can browse it with a web browser and eyeball it at http://people.apache.org/maven-snaps...activemq-core/. I haven't tried building with 5.0, but I imagine Lucas tried it before he posted.

Did you read the section on bulding Spring Batch on the website (http://static.springframework.org/sp...uilding.html)? Did you get a clean checkout? The root level pom should already have all the repository settings that you need.

Hi David,

thanks for answering.

positively no go here.

Checked out via svn, ran make install, this came:

Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

Have a look in your m2 local repository (in ${user.home}/.m2/repository) and see if there is a bad jar file or something in org/apache/activemq. Or delete that whole directory and try again. (This is a standard Maveners trick for recovering from a bad download - shouldn't happen but sometimes does.)

N.B. you don't *need* to build it yourself - there are nightly snapshot builds available (see http://static.springframework.org/sp...snapshots.html), including source code. And the m2 release is coming soon (it says in the downloads page of the website that it is already available but it isn't quite).

Lucas,
AcitveMq 5.0-SNAPSHOT was removed from the Apache snapshots repo, so build fails now. Can we use version 4.1.1 or we need newer version?

Here is some more information on that:
