Hello Team
My problem goes into the same direction, hence no new thread; When I first saw this archetype:generate , I was about to try it immediately. ON PC ON OpenVMS I am using on the PC, maven 2.2.1 and my observations are: I get 41 options to chose from offered; I use 15 and well it works; initially with some downloads 15, is OK and GENERATES a Project mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app-15 mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app-1 . . . . Choose a number: (1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/19/20/21/22/23/24/25/26/27/28/29/30/31/32/33/34/35/36/37/38/39/40/41) 15: : 1 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] The defined artifact is not an archetype mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app-1 . . .

End of my test on PC Guess someone has a little bit of work to do ! Or how shall I go on ??? And oooh yes; On OpenVMS the offerings are much greater (guess they come from remote), and they give me from the remote catalog 377 options to chose from I have some parameter passing problems on OpenVMS but the default option perfectly generates a quick-start-project Thank you Josef Von: Hahn, Christopher (SAN DIEGO) [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 23.
