Connection properties error when starting JBoss as a Maven plugin

Question

I'm trying to install the content management system Polopoly on my PC. I get the following error when I run the mvn p:run command (this is intended to start up the Polopoly installation with an embedded database, jboss and web container):

Failed to execute goal com.polopoly.extensions-maven-plugin:10.6.1-fp1
1-c871a5b:run (default-cli) on project myproject: Could not deploy com.polopoly.

st:8081/connection-properties/connection.properties', nor from backup 'C:\Users\
hollandv\AppData\Local\Temp\http___localhost_8081_connection-properties_connecti
on.properties'. ->

The detailed version of the error is as follows:

I've verified that the Jetty Maven plugin has been configured with p.connectionPropertiesUrl ${polopoly.connection-properties} in the project's pom.xml file, however this has not resolved the issue. Has anyone else had this problem and do you know how to resolve it?

Answer 1

which version of maven you use? Try a maven version 3.0.x :) and it will work!

what are the maven commands you use?

try:

mvn clean install -Pall
mvn jboss:start
mvn jetty:run-all
