Can someone review this and let me know if I'm on the right track or if I'm missing a maven nuance related to the site plugin and the default skin problem? Thanks
*Problem: *Simple maven2 project build install & site without having a site.xml flawlessly. At some point (last night) it stops working failing to find an vm file and the skin. [ERROR] ResourceManager : unable to find resource 'VM_global_library.vm' in any resource loader. ... SiteToolException: ArtifactNotFoundException: The skin does not exist: Unable to determine the release version *Workaround*: I can provide a site.xml that specifies the the skin, but I'm ok with the default site and don't want to go through the setup work for all the report links. Also, this doesn't explain the spontaneous break and I don't like it when I don't know how something broke. *Additional Factors: *I am also running a nexus maven proxy and forcing all users through it. Nexus acts as prox for the following with repo1 and jboss being the only offering the site plugin. https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots https://maven.atlassian.com/maven1 https://maven.atlassian.com/repository/public <http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/> http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/ http://google-caja.googlecode.com/svn/maven http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/ http://download.java.net/maven/ * http://repository.jboss.com/maven2* http://maven.glassfish.org/content/groups/public/ * http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/* http://oauth.googlecode.com/svn/code/maven *Conclusion and Solution: *I removed my proxy of jboss cleared & reindexed nexus and cleared my local repository. When I rebuilt site without a site.xml doc my project built properly. I believe that there is a problem with the site plugin at the jboss site. Since I don't believe that I need jboss I think I can exclude it from my proxy. If I did need it, i'm not sure how I'd ensure that my projects used maven plugins from repo1 instead of jboss. If I should submit a bug on this somewhere please let me know and I'll do it.
