Hi all,

I tried to build the uberjar (standalone executyble ApacheDS in a jar) 
from
directory trunks/apacheds via mvn -e assemby:assembly but it fails with

We have this same problem in Geronimo.  I think that it's a known bug.  
You have to run that command in the actual assembly directory.  Another 
thing, we get a -null.jar at the end of the jar name.  Please confirm if 
this is the case for you as well.


Thanks Alan,

I was finally able to build it from directory
.../trunks/apacheds/standalone/simple/main
with command
mvn assembly:assembly

But the result has no -null.jar at the end, it is called
org.apache.ldap.server.standalone.simple.main-0.9.4-SNAPSHOT-app.jar

I confess: I do not understand much from m2 configuration, but I assume 
this "app" comes from the classifier config in the pom.xml in the 
directory mentioned above :

      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
        <configuration>
          <archive>
            <manifest>
              <mainClass>org.apache.ldap.server.ServerMain</mainClass>
            </manifest>
          </archive>
          <descriptor>src/main/assembly/apacheds-main.xml</descriptor>
          <classifier>app</classifier>
          <appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
        </configuration>
      </plugin

Probably Alex or Ersin know more about this one.
Greetings, Stefan
