I'm not all too familiar with maven but the site forge.octo.com not being available seems to be the problem. Any idea how to work around this?

Can I manually download the com.octo.captcha:jcaptcha:jar:1.0 and manuallly put it in my local maven repository cache? I this is possible, how do I do it.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

I downloaded and unpacked the jforum 2.4.1 war and referenced the jcaptcha and jcaptcha-api jars in the pom.

just replace the following lines in the pom.xml

[code]
<dependency>
<groupId>com.octo.captcha</groupId>
<artifactId>jcaptcha</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<type>jar</type>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
[/code]

with the following:

[code]
<dependency>
<groupId>com.octo.captcha</groupId>
<artifactId>jcaptcha</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<type>jar</type>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>/YOUR-OWN-FULLY-QUALIFIED-PATH-TO/jforum-2.4.1/WEB-INF/lib/jcaptcha-1.0.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.octo.captcha</groupId>
<artifactId>jcaptcha-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<type>jar</type>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>/YOUR-OWN-FULLY-QUALIFIED-PATH-TO/jforum-2.4.1/WEB-INF/lib/jcaptcha-api-1.0.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
[/code]]]> https://community.jforum.net/posts/preList/152/634.page https://community.jforum.net/posts/preList/152/634.page GMT The path should be like: C:\Users\%username%\.m2\repository\com\jhlabs
