Hi, I've gone both ways on this, modifying the dependency in the pom to match the latest version of the Oracle driver, and also "renaming" the oracle driver in my own Maven repository (I.e. I load the current driver and give it the same numbers as what the DSpace pom is looking for). Either way works. But, yes, it is an area where the documentation could be more clear.
I'd also urge you to make use of Maven build profiles (either in profile.xml if you're using Maven 2.2, or in your personal Maven-settings file (%USER_HOME%/.m2/settings.xml) if you're using Maven 3 or higher. Build profiles let you keep stuff like db hosts, user names and passwords out of your version control system. Which is a good security measure, and it also lets you use the same version-controled code in multiple places, just changing out the DB credentials, to facilitate things like developer instances, a staging instance, a production instance, etc. More info here: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html -- HARDY POTTINGER <pottinge...@umsystem.edu> University of Missouri Library Systems http://lso.umsystem.edu/~pottingerhj/ https://MOspace.umsystem.edu/ "Do you love it?
