Please stop with the maven bashing in every message.
It's not bashing - it's simply the sad reality. Evey time I try to do something for Cayenne(or another mavenized project), I end up spending uselessly hours with maven problems instead of contributing with something useful :(. Others already gave up: whey they see that a project has only maven, they don't even try to contribute anymore :(.

Like all things, there are pros and cons.
You are right, except that some "cons" are simply K.O., and the result is that they exclude most users from contributing :(.

At the end of the day, we're not moving from maven to ant.  So, the best we
can do is try to make things work as smoothly with maven as we can.  Up
until now, you haven't provided any output that would help in debugging the
issue.
IntelliJ has a nice ANT language level debugger. Unfortunately there's none for maven :(.

Are you running into the exact same problems at Demetrios?
Yes of course. I received his stack trace. Just my working directory is different.

Maybe the before mentioned help document:
http://cayenne.apache.org/building-cayenne.html
could be extended by some maven guru (since normal users can't) with some troubleshooting steps when things go wrong (or at least what else to try before asking on the lists)
