Hi,
I'm a newbie to Ant & Maven (and much of the LAMP stack), and I'm trying to
understand this build failure. Most likely it's a setup-install issue, except I
don't know what exactly, and how to fix it. Any pointers on making progress
much appreciated. Please include me on replies as I don't subscribe to this
mailing list.
