In case you've not got past this yet here's some info and Maven commands which I find useful, we should add this to the Synapse website:
Building Synapse: Synapse requires JDK 1.5 or later and Maven 2.0.7 or later ( http://maven.apache.org/download.html). To build, in the top level Synapse folder do: mvn clean install Or to build the distribution archive packages do (the distribution archives are created in new folder named target): mvn assembly:assembly -Drelease The first time you build Maven downloads all the required dependency jars to your local repository, after there has been a successful build you can add the "-o" parameter to the above commands to run in offline mode which avoids going out to remote Maven repositories so the build runs faster. Eg mvn clean install -o or mvn assembly:assembly -Drelease -o If you don't want to have all the Synapse test cases run during the build you can add the parameter "-Dmaven.test.skip=true", eg: mvn clean install -o -Dmaven.test.skip=true or mvn assembly:assembly -Drelease -o -Dmaven.test.skip=true Sometimes the trunk build uses snapshot versions of some dependency jars which can go out of date but may not get refreshed in your local Maven repository even when the "-o" parameter is not used. So if you get build failures you can try refreshing any snapshot dependencys with the "-U" parameter, eg: mvn clean install -U By default the Maven local repository is in your home directory, you can change this so the build uses use a different local repository with the parameter "-Dmaven.repo.local=", eg: mvn clean install -Dmaven.repo.local=\Synapse\MyRepo HTH, ...ant On Dec 31, 2007 8:29 PM, mehdi ait oufkir <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > So I have issues with maven under eclipse.
