You have all probably solved this by now, but here is a link to the solution for the next poor soul that is trying to get people started with maven and the simplest thing dies. That this is not fixed in the common repos, I just do not understand why it is taking so long. Here is what I followed: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg00985.html
and this is what I did, based on the above suggestion, to get mvn -up archetype:create to work... 1. download http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/velocity/velocity/1.5/velocity-1.5.pom to file 2. edit section: <dependency> <groupId>commons-lang</groupId> <artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId> <version>2.1</version> </dependency> to be <dependency> <groupId>commons-lang</groupId> <artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId> <version>2.3</version> </dependency> and save 3. move edited velocity-1.5.pom to <user_home>/.m2/repository/velocity/velocity/1.5 4. run your mvn -up archetype:create And now Celebrate... now to push it to shared repository (Artifactory) so the rest of "my world" works again. -- dke p.s. note that the POM says it should be org.apache.velocity:velocity:pom:1.5 but that I had to put it into my local repository as if it was velocity:velocity:pom:1.5 ... perhaps I should use a .pom with a <distributionManagement> <relocation> and put the .pom where it belongs? jwcarman wrote: > > I'm having the same troubles.
