Can you check if the plugin installer gbean is using the artifact
resolver that knows about the aliases you installed? If it's directly
accessing the repository we need to change it to use the appropriate
artifact resolver (after figuring out which artifact resolver that is)
thanks

I attempted to create a version compatibility plugin such that
plugins with dependencies on 2.1 artifacts could attempt to be
installed in a 2.2-SNAPSHOT server image (mapping 2.1 car artifacts
to 2.2-SNAPSHOT car artifacts). However, thus far I'm not having
any success.
The plugin is fairly simple. Just a bunch of entries for artifact
aliases and no other content:
<plugin-artifact>
...
<artifact-alias key="org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper//
car">org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.2-SNAPSHOT/car</artifact-
alias>
<artifact-alias key="org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.1/
car">org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.2-SNAPSHOT/car</artifact-
alias>
...
I also verified that after installing the compatibility plugin that
the entries are added to the artifact-aliases.properties file in var/
config:
...
org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper//car=org.apache.geronimo.configs/
jasper/2.2-SNAPSHOT/car
org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.1/
car=org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.2-SNAPSHOT/car
...
Yet, even with these entries, I still get essentially the same error
attempting to install samples created for 2.1 in a 2.2-SNAPSHOT
server as I had without the artifact-alias entries. I showed the
jasper entries above because that is the missing dependency when I
attempt to install the Tomcat JSP example plugin created for 2.1 on
2.2-SNAPSHOT (see error below). I had similar results on a 2.1.1
server when I attempted to use a another compatibility plugin
mapping 2.1 cars to 2.1.1. Am I missing something obvious?
