You need to do the fresh-checkout the first time you get the source so
that you get the OpenEJB code (from CVS). AFAIK, you shouldn't need to
do a fresh-checkout again because an m:update will update both svn and
OpenEJB CVS files.
Not sure why you would need to do a fresh-checkout a second time for the
second round to work.

On my machine, if I don't do a fresh-checkout the build fails. In fact
it always fails the first attempt and the second round works as long
as I do the fresh-checkout.
Any idea why this is happening?

Hi Jason,
how is the installation doc coming, do you need any help on the
confluence side?
I saw what you started to work on the "Getting the source code"
section, I would suggest to keep this task simple. We do not want
to _scare_ the users with way too complicated commands and
parameters, all at once.
There are basically four steps to get the source and build
Geronimo, so I would focus on those first.
1.- svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/tags/
1.0.0/ <geronimo_home>
2.- cd <geronimo_home>
3.- maven m:fresh-checkout
4.- maven new
Then, the next time you want to build you just do an update
1.- cd <geronimo_home>
2.- maven m:update
3.- maven m:fresh-checkout
Take out #3
4.- maven new
add -o
(BTW, all the steps should be validated and make sure they are up-
to-date)
Once you explained the basics then you can go more in detail with
all the other options for retrieving the source code and building
Geronimo. It would also be nice to include common building errors,
how to identify them, probable causes and solutions.
Again, this is just a suggestion. What you think about this approach?
As for update preference, I think is best to update as you go so
everybody can test your instructions and provide early comments
that will make corrections (if any) easier.
Cheers!

Hi,
I am starting on the Installation section of the docs
- I have been running around like a maniac doing stuff
(mostly holiday things) - so I am a bit slow to
produce. But I am setting aside some time each day to
contribute more and more to the docs. If you start to
see me go off base - please feel free to call me out
:-D
Also - is the preference to complete a section and
then update? I started and updated but it is not
complete.
Thanks,
Jason
