Currently when I run the mvn quickstart command provided by the quickstart web page, maven complains:
... [INFO] [archetype:create] [INFO] Archetype repository missing. Using the one from [org.apache.wicket:wicket-archetype-quickstart:1.3.0-beta3 -> http://repo1.maven.org/maven2] found in catalog internal Define value for version: : Where it then waits for user input. I wasn't sure what was going on, as this had never happened before, so i just blindly hit return a couple of times. Of course the build then failed with the following message: [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] The archetype generation must be configured here I found that if i entered "1.3.1" where it asked for a "value of version:" and then "com.yournamehere" where it asks for "value for package:" then my quickstart project was created successfully with the following log: Define value for version: : 1.3.1 Define value for package: : com.myfrikinpackage Confirm properties configuration: groupId: com.mycompany artifactId: myproject3 version: 1.3.1 package: com.myfrikinpackage Y: : y [INFO] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] Using following parameters for creating OldArchetype: wicket-archetype-quickstart:1.3.1 [INFO] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] Parameter: groupId, Value: com.mycompany [INFO] Parameter: packageName, Value: com.myfrikinpackage [INFO] Parameter: basedir, Value: /Users/oli/temp [INFO] Parameter: package, Value: com.myfrikinpackage [INFO] Parameter: version, Value: 1.3.1 [INFO] Parameter: artifactId, Value: myproject3 [INFO] ********************* End of debug info from resources from generated POM *********************** [INFO] OldArchetype created in dir: /Users/oli/temp/myproject3 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ A bit of googling would suggest this is a maven issue, see: http://www.nabble.com/Archetype-repository-missing-and-asking-for-a-version-and-package-td15446552s2369.html http://www.nabble.com/Archetype-repository-missing-and-asking-for-a-version-and-package-td15446552s2369.html on the appfuse mailing list, someone is having the same problem. I have tried clearing the offending part of my local repos, but I still can't run the command without some user input. The solution is very simple, but its not immediately obvious, so may put off new users (I discovered it trying to convince a collegue how easy it was to get up and running on Wicket, which was slightly embarrassing). Is any one else experiencing this, or know what is going on?
