I don't think there is any such tag as "active". Though there is "activation" under profile. There isn't really any need for you to have a profile tag to begin with, so I'd remove that whole section
The full Maven2 POM reference is here: http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.0.4/maven-model/maven.html I recommend you start with your POM as simple as possible. You can add more later once you have the project compiling and testing successfully. -- Daniel Siegmann FJA-US, Inc. 512 Seventh Ave., New York, NY 10018 (212) 840-2618 ext. 139 -----Original Message----- From: Guofeng Zhang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 9:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: newbie failed to create a Maven 2 project Hi, I am new to maven 2.
