WOInstaller throws exceptions. Sorry Tony, I should have skimmed that page before recommending it. That step should not be required, because, as you discovered, the WebObjects JARs are available at maven.wocommunity.org. > At that point I opened the archetype catalog in a browser and found an > archetype: woapplication-archetype Note also that if you want to use Project Wonder, you can start from the erxapplication-archetype which should also be visible to you. > Maybe it doesn't matter, maybe no one is looking to start doing web objects > development again.

I'm afraid that the issue is simply that WebObjects (and to a large extent Project Wonder as well) is abandonware, and the will to keep this information up to date just doesn't exist. -- Paul Hoadley https://logicsquad.net/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/logic-squad/
