Dear Maven User List,

If you have this problem, continue reading :
<jboss-log-snippet>

To prevent more poor maven users and newbies (like myself) from giving
up on Maven or the genapp plugin, I guess I should point out a
careless mistake in the genapp plugin code.

You get the error above when you install maven (1.0.2), and then run
maven genapp to generate a "complex" template application...and then
you deploy the ear into an application server.  For me...I deployed
into JBoss 4.

The reason for this problem is because there is a missing double quote
in this file :
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\.maven\cache\maven-genapp-plugin-2.2\plugin-resources\complex\template-resources\components\wars\web\src\java\example\web\EjbServlet.java
Close this faulty line with a double quote and it should solve the
problem above :
<code>
  * 	local="example.ejb.ExampleFacadeLocal
</code>



happy programming,
