Thanks for the assistance. I've got things working now. In my case I just manually create the .m2 directory and will run everything under Tomcat.

I was not speculating; I operate four production DSpace instances this way. But why would I be running Maven under a production account? > Re-configuring the Tomcat home directory will more than likely break > Tomcat. Perhaps. On Gentoo Linux it doesn't break. My production Tomcat accounts have their homes in /home/tomcat. I do believe that I moved them there. If Tomcat is properly set up, it shouldn't know or care about the location of the home directory for the account that happens to be running it. I just looked at one, and the only thing in that directory that I didn't put there is the '.handle' directory, which isn't part of Tomcat. > Guess you need a dspace user to build dspace with and then run > everything under Tomcat after it's built.

I just log onto the box with my personal account, check out the local version of DSpace that I want to install, package it, 'su' to tomcat, and run ant over the packaging. Some years ago we had accounts named 'dspace', but no longer. -- Mark H.
