Yea, my steps where install java 1.5_20, then ran the windows installer i got from liftweb.com, then tried to run the application and basicly got into this problem, seems like maven is trying to download information from lift's repo and it get an error while trying to store it on localhost, i'll keep messing with this.
David, yea im sure it works, there no doubt about it, and no religious war was intented i just dont know if i was missing something obvious and wanted to ask.(btw its vista and im running it on the command prompt, with "run as administrator" selected).
