I tried your (pete's) example: mvn archetype:create -DartifactId=test -DgroupId=org.test -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes -DarchetypeVersion=1.0-alpha-4 Now what? I tried "mvn war" and that did not work! How can I automate the process of creating a war file and copy it to the deployment directory of tomcat or jboss or jetty?
