Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
What documentation are you referring to exactly? You might be confusing between working on Magnolia's Maven project itself and setting up your own Maven project. Or maybe not. But I gather from your post that you just want to use Magnolia CMS. I haven't tried Magnolia 5 yet, but I thought Grégory's three-part blog series was very helpful: Don’t build Magnolia: build your projects. http://dev.magnolia-cms.com/~gjoseph/dont-build-magnolia-build-your-projects Don’t configure Magnolia: let your projects configure it. http://dev.magnolia-cms.com/~gjoseph/dont-configure-magnolia-let-your-projects-configure-it Don’t deploy Magnolia: deploy your project. http://dev.magnolia-cms.com/~gjoseph/dont-deploy-magnolia-deploy-your-project I do wonder why this information is not on the wiki or part of the official documentation.
