Hello, I'm using Maven 2.0.4 and i have trouble in building a local repository.
After having installed some third party jars to my local repository, using... mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DgroupId=<group-id> \ -DartifactId=<artifact-id> -Dversion=<version> -Dpackaging=<packaging> ...the correct directories are created and the jar is copied but I've noticed that no POMs file are created (do I have to create them manually, to declare their transitive dependencies?). In addition maven tries to download then from ibiblio each time I run a compilation (and of course it fails to find them). But the compilation is successful. Btw, these jars comes from the Jboss application server (ejbs API and web services). Do I need a true remote repository, referenced in settings.xml ? Or is a local repository sufficient for playing with third party jars ? Thanks.
