Hi Ivan, Unfortunately, Maven needs an internet connection to download all the dependencies of your project from the central repository (ibiblio). However, once it has all the needed artifacts (dependencies), you can do an offline build by appending a "-o" in the command line. You can read more about repositories here: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html HTH, Henry --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
