I am installing maven 2.0.1 on Linux red hat running on a sun machine with java
1.4.2 installed and configured.
My JAVA_HOME environment is set correctly and the maven install directory added
to my PATH variable
When I do mvn --version it gives me
Maven version: 2.0.1
Which looks fine.
However when I then try to run
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=3D3Dcom.mycompany.app = -DartifactId=3D3Dmy-app
To create myself a project I get this
