Attempting to resuscitate the failover demo. I've gotten it to go if
I use 2.2-SNAPSHOT for everything, but attempting to bump it up to the
released 2.2 jars creates some issues. First one seems like a general
issue with our custom server-assembly packaging type. If the
pom.version of the project declaring itself a server-assembly does not
match the target Geronimo version, then the chain of dependencies
seems to break down a bit:
I've switched the geronimo-tomcat-farm-controller's version to 5.4-
SNAPSHOT just to illustrate:

Missing:
----------
1) org.apache.geronimo.testsupport:testsupport-common:jar:5.4-SNAPSHOT
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -
DgroupId=org.apache.geronimo.testsupport -DartifactId=testsupport-
common -Dversion=5.4-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the
file there:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -
DgroupId=org.apache.geronimo.testsupport -DartifactId=testsupport-
common -Dversion=5.4-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -
Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]
Path to dependency:
1) org.apache.geronimo.assemblies:geronimo-tomcat-farm-
controller:server-assembly:5.4-SNAPSHOT
2) org.apache.geronimo.testsupport:testsupport-common:jar:5.4-
SNAPSHOT
----------
1 required artifact is missing.
for artifact:
org.apache.geronimo.assemblies:geronimo-tomcat-farm-
controller:server-assembly:5.4-SNAPSHOT
I could call the assembly 2.2 as well but that seems like a terrible
hack as I will be needing to update this demo quite a bit -- not that
it works if I do that anyway. I can get it to work if I build that
latest, pre-release, 2.2-SNAPSHOT of geronimo locally and change the
demo version to 2.2-SNAPSHOT as well, so I know we're otherwise in
good shape and just need to work through some tooling issues. I'd
sort of prefer to rip the band-aid off now rather than just put it off
till later.
Anyway, any ideas on what happens to the dependency tree that causes a
server-assembly to get a dep on the testsupport-common-$
{notTheGeronimoVersion}.jar ?
