setting up Maven on Linux
I want to set up Maven 1.0rc1 on my linux laptop for all users, but I am running
into problems because all new plugins need to be installed by root, which makes
the process of installing and debugging plugins a real problem.
I have set the plugins directory with the following settings:
chgrp -R users plugins
chmod -R g+w plugins
I still can't let users update and add plugins at this location. Also, how many
others are using Maven with a real operating system (Windows doesn't count)?
The issues are completely with permissions.

Make the group rights sticky sounds as an option ?

Don't use plugin:install in a multi-user environment. Use plugin:deploy.

The problem is the way the plugin:install goal works. It modifies the
installation plugin directory, as well as the ~/.maven/plugins.
Normally this isn't a problem--until you try to do plugin development.

I think you have the right idea. But I've never been able to get a
shared plugin directory working. I allow them to be unpacked in the
default dir ~/.maven/plugins.
I have been able to set up my local repository in the way that you're
suggesting though.
Try doing chgrp and chmod with the -v (verbose) option to make sure that
all files are being affected.

Remember that, if you change a user's groups, you have to logout and
re-login for the changes to take effect.

Hmm. I have done this, or something like it. I still can't get access.
I originally did not have me in my "users" group, but even with that fix I can't
seem to have write access to the plugins directory.

Hi,
I'm using Maven on a SuSE 9.0 (before that, 8.1 and 8.2). I use following setup:
in /usr, I've created a directory called "java". Below that directory, I
install all my java stuff such as ant, maven, jdk's etc.
I've executed the commands:
chgrp -R users /usr/java
chmod -R g+w /usr/java
I know, that this gives any user access to modify anything below the /usr/java
directory, but on my machine, the only user is .... me.
You would need to give the users access to write into the repository directory
too, if you wish to use a single repository and not one pr. user.
I've been quite happy with Linux/maven, I've used maven for quite a while.
br,
