Answer 1

Removing of redHat "postfix" resolved the problem, just have actual jar name, instead of having redHat postfix.

Have below dependencies in your pom.xml, then it will build successfully.

     <dependencyManagement>
        <dependencies>
            <dependency>
                <groupId>org.jboss.spec</groupId>
                <artifactId>jboss-javaee-6.0</artifactId>
                <version>3.0.2.Final</version>
                <type>pom</type>
                <scope>import</scope>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>
    </dependencyManagement>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.enterprise</groupId>
            <artifactId>cdi-api</artifactId>
            <version>1.0-SP4</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.spec.javax.annotation</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-annotations-api_1.1_spec</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.1.Final</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jboss.spec.javax.servlet</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-servlet-api_3.0_spec</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.2.Final</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
      </dependencies>

Answer 2

If you clone the quickstarts from the github repository, e.g.

git clone --recursive git://github.com/jboss-jdf/jboss-as-quickstart.git --branch jdf-2.1.9.Final

See: http://www.jboss.org/jdf/quickstarts/get-started/

then you will find a maven settings.xml file in the root directory (./jboss-as-quickstart/settings.xml)

For each example, run maven with that settings file:

cd jboss-as-quickstart
cd helloworld
mvn -s ..\settings.xml compile

See: http://www.jboss.org/jdf/quickstarts/jboss-as-quickstart/#configure-maven

Answer 3

OK, here's what fixed it:

Commented out this line in the pom.xml: (I thought this is a type of variable that gets automatically inserted/replaced by eclipse/something, turns out NO IT IS NOT):

<!--                 <version>${version.org.jboss.spec.jboss.javaee.6.0}</version> -->

Replace with:

<version>3.0.2.Final</version>

It now builds and I can deploy it fine, thanks for the help Nishant!

Answer 4

You might have to create one (see this page for more details):

There are two locations where a settings.xml file may live:

• The Maven install: $M2_HOME/conf/settings.xml
• A user's install: ${user.home}/.m2/settings.xml

But I feel the issue is with the version string of the dependency. Hardcode the version and try again:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.spec</groupId>
    <artifactId>jboss-javaee-6.0</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.2.Final</version>
    <type>pom</type>
    <scope>import</scope>
</dependency>

Uncommenting the following line might work too:

<version.org.jboss.spec.jboss.javaee.6.0>3.0.2.Final
    </version.org.jboss.spec.jboss.javaee.6.0>
