Invalid maven.scm.url
I have my scm url configured as shown below (following the example at
http://maven.apache.org/scm/cvs.html)
maven.scm.url=scm:cvs:pserver:jeffm:mypassword@165.11.12.13::/var/lib/cvsroot:portalproject
but my build is failing with the message "The scm url is invalid."
I left the port number blank as I'm connecting using the default
port.What am I doing wrong?

I didn't use the scm plugin for cvs for a long time.
This problem is due to the fact that you must install a cvs client on your
machine and put it on your PATH
The current SCM plugin for maven 1 (i'm not sure for maven 2) isn't yet a
full java component. It's only a wrapper above the cvs executable.
What you need to do for cvs actually is (if my memory is good) :
- install cvs on your machine
- Add it in your path
- logon to the server with cvs login -D....
After that you can use maven to do a checkout, an update ...

The manual login sorted things out :).Thanx.However , the checking out
does not spit out info on what it's checking like what used to be the
case with 1.0.Is there something that needs to be set in order to make
it verbose?

it's because cvs is bundled in your linux distrib and you certainly logged
to the server manually before ;-)
I'll try the manual login and see what happens
it'll work (i hope ;-) )

As I said previously, you need to logon manually to the cvs server with the
cvs executable.
The current maven plugin doesn't handle the logon part :-(
This is why your password isn't used.
You have to logon to the cvs server only the first time. It's automatically
stored in your local .cvspass file.
After that you don't have to logon.
Arnaud
(for CVSNT you need to unextract it somewhere and add it in your path.
that's all - it's not really hard ;-) )

I'm moving the build environment to a linux machine(FC4).Didn't wanna
be bothered with installing CVSNT.However I tried my
<repository>
<connection>scm:cvs:pserver:jeffm@165.X.Y.Z:/var/lib/cvsroot:portalproject</connection>
</repository>
And the error message on linux correctly tells me :
scm:find-connection:

scm:checkout:

Provider message:
The cvs command failed.
Command output:

to /var/lib/cvsroot for user jeffm
cvs checkout: used empty password; try "cvs login" with a real password

, which makes sense , since I OMMITTED the password in the scm url.
However , I changed the scm url to include my password as follows:
<repository>

</repository>
And I get the error message :

Sorry for that, I thought it was well documented but effectively I took a

If you use the default port, you must replace "::" by ":"
