Nicolas:

You may want to try installing the beta-10 version of Maven. Generally 
speaking this has less problems than RC1.

If you have any problems building Merlin you should post the details to 
the users@avalon.apache.org mailing list.  Subscription details are 
included here:

RE: starting up problems

Posted by Nicolas Avila <na...@genarus.com.ar>.
Hi
    My problem is in fact not merlin
    I builded merlin (typed maven build in merlin %MERLIN_HOME%) and got no
warning... everything was supposted to be right.
    The problems were as i runed the program i was wanting to test
    so i camed back to maven to reinstall everything and i noticed JUnit and
Ant exitences... wich i never read about before....
    now the question is how can i have builded merlin if i was not ready for
it?

    what are supposted to do the installer files (Windows)... i runned
maven-install-1.0-b4.exe     and i see no changes in my pc... i mean i got
not the "desktop icon" i should have got
    on the other hand i have the zip file, wich creates a
%HOME%\.maven\repository\*
    should i copy those dirs to %MAVEN_HOME%\repository\* or to C:\Documents
and Settings\username\.maven\repository\*
    maybe the last installation i did has added domething to my system i
didn´t delete
    i deleted the C:\Archivos de programa\maven (where i had installed it)
    i deleted also C:\Documents and settings\Administrador\.maven
    and i changed %MAVEN_HOME% to "C:\maven" (it was "C:\Archivos de
programa\maven")
    ok... that's alll
        thanks by reading
                                            Nicolas

Nicolas: please don't use beta-10. We fixed sooooo many bugs in beta 10.

Give us a bit more detail on your problems.
