Dashboard produces no results / Checkstyle question
I am new to Maven (previously used Ant), and am loving it.
I have customized many of the reports, and added content to the site,
and everything is coming along well. But I have two questions that I
have not been able to resolve on my own.
1) When the Dashboard plugin runs I get an empty dashboard-data.xml and
no data on the report. (the xml contains just the dashboard open and
closing tag.) All the dashboard settings have been left at their
defaults.
2) Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to fix classes quickly when
checkstyle reports errors? We have 12,500 errors :), not all of which
need to be fixed (we'll make some changes to the checkstyle format), but
many do. I could use jalopy but then I have to replicate all the rules
from checkstyle to jalopy. Any other suggestions?

I wrote that ages ago, it needs to be brought up-to-date with the new
checkstyle format. The gist is, I found it so hard to get jalopy and
checkstyle rules to match up, I just turned off everything I could fix
with jalopy, or with my IDE's code formatter.
Now they both have an xml config format it would be extremely useful if
someone wrote an xsl conversion between them; or at least if the jalopy
plugin was changed so it would always try to use a config file that
matched the coding convention (eg. both checkstyle & jalopy use a file
called "avalon.xml" or "sun.xml" or whatever, based on the convention
you choose)

Ok, that's normal then. The dashboard plugin makes sense only when you
have several subprojects. By default it does not include the main
project in its dashboard as when a master project/multiple subproject
scenario, the master project does not usually hold any code and is
simply a wrapper project. If you wish to run it on your main master
project, try setting:
maven.dashboard.excludes=**/target/**/project.xml
The default value is:
maven.dashboard.excludes=**/target/**/project.xml,project.xml
as show by
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/dashboard/properties.html
BTW, I've just noticed that I should removed project.xml from the
default exclude list as it's already excluded in the default includes
list:
maven.dashboard.includes=*/project.xml
and it makes more sense for the user (you) to simply add it, as in:
maven.dashboard.includes=*/project.xml,project.xml
Note: I haven't tested this scenario of including the master project and
it might not work!

I am only using the dashboard with one project (no subprojects). There
is no dashboard-single.xml anywhere, just the dashboard-data.xml. I do
have the checkstyle-raw-report.xml though. I'm not using clover.

The dashboard is quite new (I've just committed it last week) so there
may be some rough edges... :-)
The dashboard plugins calls each project and that generates a
dashboard-single.xml file in each of your project. Could you check that
these files exists and if they have any content?
The default dashboard aggregators are checkstyle and clover ones. So the
first thing you need to ensure is that running "maven checkstyle" on
your individual projects generates a checkstyle-raw-report.xml file. For
clover, you *must* set the maven.clover.report.xml=true property, as
explained on:
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/dashboard/aggregators.html
