Mike,
It is possible to start offline, but you need a populated maven
repository. I know this does not help much!
Is there any way you can build on another machine that IS connected to
the internet? If so, you can grab the maven repository from it and a
copy of the J2 build and you should be ready to go.
Short of that, I'd have to admit that you are indeed stuck. The whole
point of maven is to use a remote repository to manage plugins, jars,
wars, etc. What I do for J2 is build it locally and then build a self
contained RPM/installer from the local build I can install w/o internet
access on servers that are configured offline.

I am currently trying to set up a Jetspeed-2 portal on a private network.
Internet access from this private network is strictly forbidden.
My ultimate intention is to create a portal with my own newly-developed
portlets to provide web services to those of my work colleagues that have
access to the private network.
However, I am having problems simply setting Jetspeed-2 up at all. Leaving
aside the fact that the various setup guides all seem to be inconsistent
(and more than a little ambiguous), there seems to be a fundamental problem
that I don't think can be circumvented. Unless somebody out there knows
better, of course ...
One of the very first things that I am required to do is "build the maven
plugin" (see
http://wiki.apache.org/portals/Jetspeed2/QuickstartForTheImpatient for
details), by issuing the command "maven initMavenPlugin". This does not work
at all.
It seems that the act of building the maven plugin requires that maven go to
one of a number of web sites to identify and download the latest versions of
a series of jar files to my PC. Which is impossible for me, because my PC is
not connected to the internet, and isn't allowed to be.
Can somebody out there confirm for me that this is the case? And if it is
the case, has anybody out there come across the problem themselves and found
a way to get around it?
The Maven web site and the Jetspeed web site are both less than helpful on
this matter. In fact, neither of them indicates that a connection to the
internet is mandatory in order to use maven to build a Jetspeed2 portal.
Many thanks,
Mike Church
