Re: 1.0-M3 src build failed

[Craig Johannsen]

Seems to be using "maven.repo.remote=http://www.openejb.org/maven, http://www.ibiblio.org/maven" and not finding "howl-logger-0.1.8-SNAPSHOT.jar".  Maybe "0.1.7-SNAPSHOT" would work better.

Otherwise, new users will run into the same problems and end up frustrated and with a bad impression. Craig Aaron Mulder wrote: I think we've concluded that the M3 source is provided as a reference, and you will not necessarily be able to build from it. The problem has to do with the version numbers used for the dependencies and related projects. We need to improve this somehow for future milestone releases, though so long as so many things we depend on are SNAPSHOTs, it's going to be tough. That said, the Magic G Ball is usually the very last thing in the build, and it's a sample application, so all the core parts of Geronimo should have built by that point. If you really want to see it through to the bitter end, find the part of applications/magicGball/project.xml that references the library below, and change SHAPSHOT to rc3 and try again.
