Thank you very much for the quick response. I followed the instructions below. I assumed the basic issue was to back up to the early point in the instructions where you would run install from trunk. I ran into the same error at the same point.
I checked against https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-113 and now it is the LoadTest that is failing instead of CDInfosToolTest. cd to {MAHOUT-ROOT}/trunk mvn clean install --> [Build Successful] cd core mvn compile --> [Build Successful] mvn install --> [Build failure] Test- Failed Running org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.impl.LoadTest Tests run: 3, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 311.442 sec <<< FAILURE! cd ../examples mvn compile --> [Build Failure] I receive the same error about the missing artifact: Missing: ---------- 1) org.apache.mahout:mahout-core:jar:0.2-SNAPSHOT Try downloading the file manually from the project website. Then, install it using the command: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.mahout -DartifactId=mahout-core -Dversion=0.2-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=org.apache.mahout -DartifactId=mahout-core -Dversion=0.2-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id] Path to dependency: 1) org.apache.mahout:mahout-examples:jar:0.2-SNAPSHOT 2) org.apache.mahout:mahout-core:jar:0.2-SNAPSHOT ---------- 1 required artifact is missing. for artifact: org.apache.mahout:mahout-examples:jar:0.2-SNAPSHOT from the specified remote repositories: Apache snapshots (http://people.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository), maven2-repository.dev.java.net (http://download.java.net/maven/2), central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) Again, thank you for any help.
