Installation

You need to have Java SE 6 otherwise you can not compile since it uses the new API from Java 6, Properties.load(Reader).

what is the UI made with? plain JSP?

It uses JSTL and XML. You can add view=xml to your URL, it will display output in XML.

I fail at step :Run mvn jetty:run. It said that: Missing:

---

1) javax.transaction:jta:jar:1.0.1B

Try downloading the file manually from:

http://java.sun.com/products/jta

Then, install it using the command:

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId?=javax.transaction -DartifactId?=jta \

-Dversion=1.0.1B -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file

Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: mvn deploy:depl ax.transaction -DartifactId?=jta \

-Dversion=1.0.1B -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file \

-Durl=url? -DrepositoryId?=id?

Path to dependency:

1. com.asksunny.demo:Sunny_DEMO:war:0.0.1

2) org.hibernate:hibernate:jar:3.0.5 3) javax.transaction:jta:jar:1.0.1B

---

1 required artifact is missing.

for artifact:

com.asksunny.demo:Sunny_DEMO:war:0.0.1

from the specified remote repositories:

central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)

Any comment? rgs,

Download the file using your browser, you need to accept the license

Save it in a tmp directory Then:

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.transaction -DartifactId=jta \
            -Dversion=1.0.1B -Dpackaging=jar \ 
            -Dfile=/home/nic/tmp/jta-1_0_1B-classes.zip

then start again mvn jetty:run

After running mvn clean install, isn't it supposed to create a build.xml file? Because when I try to run ant it complies about not finding such file. Indeed there is no build.xml, so what should I do?

which download file did you download? Build file is under springonrails-core module. Here is the link to build.xml in Subversion

http://spring-on-rails.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/spring-on-rails/spring-on-rails-core/build.xml

I get ...

$ mvn jetty:run
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'jetty'.
[INFO] artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jetty-plugin: checking for updates from central
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] The plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jetty-plugin' does not exist or no valid version could be found

try here http://www.mortbay.org/maven-plugin/index.html. You may be able to find the answer for jetty related issues.

mvn install

was Ant BUILD SUCCESS.

mvn clean

or

mvn clean install

was Ant BUILD ERROR.

SoR version was 1.0.5

Did womansw... forget cd before Jetty running?

cd dist/project

mvn jetty:run

Change dist and project to your setting.

I think you should see "Getting Started", "5MinutesTutorial".

see at: http://www.nabble.com/-Jetty-support--howto-install-mvn%3Ajetty-plugin--td6728273.html add the followings to pom.xml:

<build>

<plugins>

<plugin>

<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId> <version>6.0.1</version>

</plugin>

Hi I was having some issues installing spring-on-rails. It raised the following TRACE: INFO? Trace org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException?: Error assembling JAR

I solved the problem by editing the D:\Java\spring-on-rails\spring-on-rails-core\pom.xml deleting lines 34 to 37:

<includes>

<include /> <include />

</includes>

Just thought it might help someone in the same situation.
