Checkstyle configLocation error

Hi!

I have configured maven to run a checkstyle when mvn site is used. Here is
the configuration:

     
  <modules>
    <module>children.project.jar</module>
    ...
  </modules>
  ...
  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
      <configuration>
        <configLocation>checkstyle.xml</configLocation>
        <enableRulesSummary>true</enableRulesSummary>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>

However, it crashes when I use the config location. I have a main pom
projects which have the checkstyle.xml but it can not be found in the child
projects. Projects like this:

project.main.pom
> checkstyle.xml is located in this folder...
> children.project.jar
  > produses this error when mvn site is runned:

You can see a way to bundle and share the config here:

end, I specifically talk about the checkstyle use)

I went playing with my checkstyle configuration and modified the
following:

        <configLocation>../checkstyle.xml</configLocation>

I know have a system which runs with the correct checkstyle.xml :-D.

If I want to reuse this checkstyle xml in other projects, can I override
the
current setting? I would like other main projects to have this main pom
as
parent to enable common configuration.
