Thanks, I got it to compile! I think the key was to comment out the <extend> element. I was getting an error because this element was pointing to ../project.xml but that file is in the current directory not the parent. I had changed this element to point to ./project.xml to get it to run, but I suspect this was the cause of my problems. When I commented out the <extend> element and used the skip.tests variable you suggested, the compile completed.
Now the question is how do I get a simple Jelly script to run? I tried running a script by putting the required jars in my class path and running org.apache.commons.jelly.Jelly but I get the following error: java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraints violated when linking org/xml/sax/XMLReader class Any idea what is the correct way to run a simple Hello World script? Also, what is the minimal set of JAR files required to use the jelly-core? Would they be all the JARs in the jelly/target/lib folder? That seems like overkill for a minimal Jelly script?

Which version did you grab ? I would recommend to follow the cvs-checkout. At least on this, after commenting out the "<extend>" element, "maven jar" builds fine by me (including tests). For taglibs, the problem will come a bit later that some dependencies are not distributable as easily hence need manual work...

Following the directions, I installed Maven and fetched the most recent version of Jelly from CVS.

I tried several things after this (I will not go into the details) and I still have not be able to get a working copy of Jelly. > > Can anyone help me get Jelly installed?
