the .m2 directory is created by maven and is where it stores the artifacts that are downloaded and used to build out the classpath when it is building each project.. the repository in that .m2 directory is what maven refers to as its local repository.
as for wacking the whole .m2/repository, that can be a pain if there are some of those javax libs that are still manually required to download, or if you had to manually install things like oracle jars, you ought to be able to get away with just removing the .m2/repository/org/apache/directory folder.. jesse On 5/31/07, Emmanuel Lecharny <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I was pretty drastic : rm -rf ~/.m2/repository (or whatever command on windows that wipe the repo) mvn clean mvn package and, Magic ! it worked... Can you try and tell me if it's ok ? Thanks Emmanuel
