Hi, I'm attempting to build Apache Karaf from source. It runs for quite some time but then fails. I cloned the git repository from here:https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/karaf.git ..to my local Windows machine, on which I have Maven 3.1 installed:Apache Maven 3.2.1 (ea8b2b07643dbb1b84b6d16e1f08391b666bc1e9; 2014-02-14T18:37:52+01:00)Maven home: C:\Program Files\maven\v3.2.1\bin\..Java version: 1.7.0_17, vendor: Oracle CorporationJava home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk\jreDefault locale: nl_NL, platform encoding: Cp1252OS name: "windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "amd64", family: "windows" I then ran this build command:mvn -DskipTests clean install -Dtest=false The first time I ran the command I included the options to generate source JARs and I also noticed some downloads where there was a connection failure at first and it had to reconnect, but eventually they succeeded. Anyway the build as a whole failed so I tried again a couple of times using the above command but it keeps failing. I see this in the reactor summary:[INFO] Apache Karaf :: Tooling :: Maven Karaf Plugin ..... SUCCESS [ 9.610 s][INFO] Apache Karaf :: Assemblies ........................

I just Git Pull'ed the repo and Git tells me it's up to date:= [up to date] karaf-2.3.x -> origin/karaf-2.3.x= [up to date] karaf-2.x -> origin/karaf-2.x= [up to date] karaf-3.0.x -> origin/karaf-3.0.xAlready up-to-date. Success (2418 ms @ 29-3-2014 18:28:57) I'm not sure how to read this. Am I pulling from the wrong repo? I don't see karaf-4.0.x there, but presumably that's because it's the 'master' branch? Anyway, I'd love some feedback on this, -Stijn
