Thanks for your patience!

Try to locate your local m2 repository directory for ojdbc14.
For example, mine is under the C:\Users\Andowson\.m2\repository\com\oracle\ojdbc14\10.2.0.4.0 path.
And delete all the files except the ojdbc14-10.2.0.4.0.jar.
Run your maven build command and test if this works.

Negative, i get the same error as before smilie

Hi Raskolnikov,
In your case, just remove the following fragment from pom.xml:

<dependency>

                        <groupId>com.oracle</groupId>

                        <artifactId>ojdbc14</artifactId>

                        <version>10.2.0.4.0</version>

                        <scope>compile</scope>

                </dependency>

And copy the ojdbc14.jar file into src\main\webapp\WEB-INF\lib directory yourself.

It worked! Thank you andowson! smilie

Hi Raskolnikov,
Would you please add back the deleted part to the pom.xml and try the following command again:

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=ojdbc14.jar -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc14 -Dversion=10.2.0.4.0 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true

The last parameter for generating a POM will save you from pom.xml warnings

And check if this works now?

Hi, can I build jforum with glassfish server in Netbeans v8.0??

Having trouble doing initial build from 2.4.1 source (build 501)

It appears that the captcha dependency has been hosed.

The error:


 Failed to execute goal on project jforum: Could not resolve dependencies for project net.jforum:jforum:war:2.4.1: Failed to collect dependencies at com.octo.captcha:jcaptcha:jar:1.0 -> com.jhlabs:imaging:jar:01012005: Failed to read artifact descriptor for com.jhlabs:imaging:jar:01012005: Could not transfer artifact com.jhlabs:imaging:pom:01012005 from/to 3rd-party (http://forge.octo.com/archiva/repository/3rd-party): forge.octo.com: Unknown host forge.octo.com

Has anyone built this from a bare local repository lately?
