Dan, I downloaded jetspeed-1.5-src.zip and unzipped it in c:\java.
Then I changed c:\java\jetspeed-1.5\project.properties to use MySQL I also changed c:\java\jetspeed-1.5\webapp\WEB-INF\conf\Torque.properties Then, just to see what happens before modifying the schema, I ran 'maven -Dmaven.test.skip=true dist:install' This ran a REALLY long process (8 minutes) and when it finished, it created a 'target' directory with a really strange structure, because (amongst others) I now have a C:\java\jetspeed-1.5\target\jetspeed-1.5\src\jetspeed-1.5 that looks VERY similar to the root directory (except for the 'target' directory and a 'velocity.log'. Is this normal behavior? It also created jetspeed.war in the 'target' directory, which I think is Ok. So, if I understand you correctly, I should modify C:\java\jetspeed-1.5\src\torque-schema\security-schema.xml and then run the maven command you said, then the new JAR will be modified and I just have to deploy this to my webapp under Tomcat. Afterwards I just have to extend the BaseJetspeedUser and change JetspeedSecurity.properties and I should be ready? As a note, when I run maven, I get the following message: Tag library requested that is not present: 'maven' in plugin: 'null' Tag library requested that is not present: 'maven' in plugin: 'null' Plugin 'maven-deploy-plugin' in project 'jakarta-jetspeed' is not available Plugin 'maven-deploy-plugin' in project 'jakarta-jetspeed' is not available Is this normal? I'll try this and let you know my results. Thanks for the help.
