nexus, local repository, and m2eclipse

[ChadDavis <ch...@gmail.com>]

I'm trying to use nexus to serve a 3rd party dependency.  Following
the nexus book, I was able to upload the artifact with out incident.
I then tried to search for the dependency in the various interfaces of
m2eclipse: via add dependency on the pom.xml view, via the repository
view.  In none of these could I find the artifact.  Note, nexus does
show up in the repository view, so I guess my settings.xml profile (
which I completed according to the book ) is in effect and
successfully bringing the public repository group into play.

I tried updating the index, and rebuilding the index, but the artifact
still doesn't show.  Finally, I entered the coordinates by hand, in
the add dependency interface of the pom.xml editor, and the artifact
was successfully located.  Now, when I view the repositories, in
m2eclipse, the 3rd party artifact shows up in the local repository,
but still NOT in the nexus public repository group.

Any ideas?

I think the issue is that the boundaries between maven, sonatype,
m2eclipse, nexus, etc. are a bit unclear to the unitiated, i.e. me.

You mean, like adding a project information page in the community
section with links to all the lists?
http://nexus.sonatype.org/project-information.html

;-p

  It is just that this forum is so full of talented people that there is 
no need to visit any other web sites ;-) .

A Bot? Are we talking about Martin? :-)

But Nexus is not the only MRM around, so should the Maven docs include
links to all MRM tools each time the subject comes up? Eventually you
have to expect that intelligent people can figure out what tool is the
cause of a given issue and send email to the proper place, right?

I think the problem is simply that it is hard for relatively new
people to figure out where the "lines" are drawn, which is what Chad
said. For those of us who have been using these tools for a while, it
is pretty obvious.

Perhaps we could adjust the mailing software that runs this list so
emails go through a bot before being distributed. If the word Nexus
(and other words) is mentioned more than once or if its in the
subject, then the bot replies back with "are you sure you didn't mean
to send this to the Nexus list?" and requires a confirmation before
forwarding it on to the Maven Users group. ;-)

 Maybe a good idea is to put a pointer to the nexus list in the most obvious
place(s) people would look in the Maven on-line docs, saying something like "for
questions about Nexus, please post to the Nexus mailing list(s) found here". 
That way, users would get "just in time" education :-).

This happens often. I don't know why there is such confusion. Perhaps
the Sonatype folks need to make this more obvious somewhere on the
Nexus site?

I didn't know there was a nexus list.  Thanks.

Is there a reason you're posting these Nexus questions on the Maven
Users list instead of the proper forum?
