Getting started with RC3

["Farmer, Todd" <to...@elmresources.com>]

Hi,

 

I apologize if this is a FAQ; I cannot access the archives and need some
help installing RC3.  I have an existing Tomcat 5.0.x instance that I
want to use to host Pluto, so I've attempted to download an build from
source.  I followed the instructions (Maven is already installed and I'm
somewhat familiar with it), but I get the following error when I try to
run Maven:

 

C:\Documents and Settings\todd\Desktop\Java\Pluto Portal\deploy>maven

 __  __

|  \/  |__ _Apache__ ___

| |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \  ~ intelligent projects ~

|_|  |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_|  v. 1.0.2

 

Attempting to download pluto-descriptors-1.0.1-rc3.jar.

WARNING: Failed to download pluto-descriptors-1.0.1-rc3.jar.

The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied
dependency:

 

pluto-descriptors-1.0.1-rc3.jar

 

Total time: 4 seconds

Finished at: Mon Jul 18 15:35:21 PDT 2005

 

I cannot find this JAR file anywhere, including in the binary
distribution.

 

Just to try to get up and running, I tried to install the binary
distribution.  Again, I followed the instructions, but it failed while
trying to launch Tomcat 5.5.9, as my JAVA_HOME points to a 1.4 JRE.  I
don't yet have a 1.5 JRE installed.  I can do that, it that's what it
takes.  It's not called out as a dependency anywhere on the installation
guide, which I think may be a bit of an oversight.

 

If anybody has any suggestions, I would appreciate them.

 

Thanks!

Yes, this is an error in the source distribution.  We are looking to 
resolve it by releasing RC4 more quickly than planned.

Missing documentation is always a possibility.  Please submit a 
documentation patch if you can so that others can benefit from your 
trials., otherwise, we'll add it to the todo list.
