My build fails on build server by not workstation
I have a problem where my maven build works fine on my laptop but
compilation fails on the build server. I've already blown away both local
repositories but that didn't help. I ran help:effective-pom on both but
there are no unexpected differences.
Do you have any idea what else I should look at?
The fact that the build fails isn't the problem. That fact that it succeeds
one place and fails on the other is.

In spite of the humour, the forum crowd is willing and probably able
to help you solve your problem if you give us something to work with.
What error messages did you get?

My car wouldn't start this morning. Can you tell me which piece needs
to be replaced?? I don't know what's wrong, my wife's car started
right up!

Glad to hear that you found the problem and that it was a result of a
little "out of the box" thinking.

The values from settings.xml are inluded in the effective pom (as in "mvn
help:effective-pom").

You will get to a solution much quicker when you start to think about
this as "Maven is working correctly. I have an error in my setup. Where
can it be? What do I get to specify?"
What is the error message? The answer is probably sitting right on the
screen.
I have never heard of Maven just failing with no message describing what
it found or did not find that caused it to be unable to complete the build.
POMs aren't the only thing that Maven uses.
You have a settings.xml file on your computer. What is the difference
between that and your build server?

What configuration would be different and not show up in the effective pom?

Were you planning to give any details?
We all know that building correctly on both places wouldn't have caused
you to write.
The fact that it fails on your build server is probably the place to
focus on.
It builds on your laptop because you have done everything there in a
correct and internally consistent manner.
It is a good guess that that is not true on your build server.
So your question reduces to "I have something wrong in the configuration
of my build server, can anyone fix this sort of problem through psychic
means?"
I am out! Not that "in tune" with the universe and your server in
particular.

[Taking this back to the list so they know you have found the problem.]
Good to hear you found the cause. I can confirm that AFAIK javax.xml.ws
is not present in Java 5.

Try "mvn --version" on both and look for differences in Java version and
Maven.
For example, if you inadvertently used Java 6 API elements on your
laptop and your server builds with Java 5 the build will fail. There are
also differences between Maven versions that can have unexpected
side-effects.
What is the nature of the failure? Compile or test?
