Site Plugin: Changing the Template

[Alexander Hars <do...@inventivio.com>]

Hi,

I wanted to change the velocity template used in the site plugin.
I created my own velocity template maven.vm (based on the one that is 
part of the site plugin), placed it in src/site/resources/ and changed 
the pom as follows:

    <plugin>
       <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
       <artifactId>maven-site-plugin</artifactId>
       <configuration>
         
<templateDirectory>file://${basedir}/src/site/resources/</templateDirectory>
         <template>maven.vm</template>
       </configuration>
    </plugin>  

This did not work. Maven reported that it was not able to find the 
template. (Error message is below).
Has anyone been successful at using the site plugin with a different 
template?

Thanks
- Alexander Hars
