Maven (rc4) installer bug report
If you install in a different directory and it ends with the path separator
your MAVEN_HOME variable might contain a path separator to many.
For example (on windows):
Install to "C:\develop\build\maven 1.0-rc4\"
SET PATH contains:
C:\develop\build\maven 1.0-rc4\\bin

The NSIS plugin use the nsis software.
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/
It's the better site for find documentation about it and create .exe file.
You can also see at nsis code for maven installer
(http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/maven/src/installer/nsis/)

Re: Maven (rc4) installer bug report

Dion,
Sure, love to help :)
Only got some time in the evenings, but I 'll draw up a proposal file for
the FAQ's, probably by Wednesday evening. Are there any big J2SE open source
projects besides Maven I can consolidate some tricks from?
As for the JVM included, I am all for.
I am working on an open source project for end-users who mostly don't know
what Java is.
So installing a suitable JVM (in my case +1.4) is an issue :)
It would be nice to have the option not to install it if you have a suitable
JVM though.
It wouldn't surprise me if someone already wrote such a NSIS script.
I 've added a JIRA issue for it.

Eeeww. I hate when apps do that.
I wouldn't mind it as an option though.

Dion, I think the JVM question means bundling a JVM to avoid the need
for one pre-installed. eg like IDEA does.
I really prefer to discourage it... I have a enough JVMs installed by
my choosing! But have no problem if someone else wants to add the
functionality.

Geoff, I really would like to get some more docs on the nsis plugin.
Wanna help?

Done :)
Is there more documentation coming up for the NSIS plugin?
Making it able to generate an exe with jvm would make it wonderfull open
source alternative to InstallAnywhere.
Maven rocks.
