Ah OK. This finally succeeded after 15 minutes. I see a ton of messages like this:
... [WARNING] Entry: mahout-0.2-SNAPSHOT/examples/examples/src/test/java/org/apache/mahout/ga/watchmaker/cd/utils/RandomRuleResults.java longer than 100 characters. ... [INFO] mahout-0.2-SNAPSHOT/examples/mahout-examples-0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar already added, skipping ... I had assumed it was stuck after a minute or two and killed it in the past. Is the time it takes normal, what others see? I'm looking for a 'compile' target. 'mvn compile' succeeds in core actually, this is good. It fails in examples. Is that expected? I will probably keep using my IDE for day-to-day compilation and tests since it's faster, and as long as that works out I am cool. Now, I have a build.xml file for the taste-web component in place of the pom.xml file. Everything seems to work as intended. My last question is how to just make sure this stuff is packaged into the build without a pom.xml file -- or does the pom.xml file have to exist? I'm trying to avoid duplication but can put back the pom.xml file there if it is needed. Thanks all.
