Hi Stephen thanks for responding. Unfortunately the Maven version from the Jenkins drop down list shows 3.0.4, when we check the version directly it is using [root@A bin]# ./mvn --version Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 09:31:09-0800)
and we need Apache Maven 3.0.4 (r1232337; 2012-01-17 00:44:56-0800) Do you have suggestions on what we should copy over to what we already have on the slaves and the Jenkins box itself ?
