Maven

[INFO] Cannot find matching toolchain definitions for the following toolchain types: jdk [ vendor=’sun’ version=’1.5’ ] Please make sure you define the required toolchains in your ~/.m2/toolchains.xml file.

Maven is complaining that it can’t find a Sun JDK 1.5. If you create a toolchains.xml in your .m2 directory with the following:

<toolchains>
  <toolchain>
     <type>jdk</type>
     <provides>
         <version>1.6</version>
         <vendor>sun</vendor>
         <id>i_hate_maven</id>
     </provides>
     <configuration>
        <jdkHome>C:program filesjavajdk1.6.0_02</jdkHome>
     </configuration>
  </toolchain>
</toolchains>

This will still not work, because Maven is insisting on a 1.5 JVM, and supplying a 1.6 JVM is not appropriate. However, you can just copy and paste toolchain as follows. As far as I know, JVM 1.6 is backwards compatible.

<!-- I hate maven -->
<toolchains>
  <toolchain>
     <type>jdk</type>
     <provides>
         <version>1.6</version>
         <vendor>sun</vendor>
         <id>i_hate_maven</id>
     </provides>
     <configuration>
        <jdkHome>C:program filesjavajdk1.6.0_02</jdkHome>
     </configuration>
  </toolchain>
  <toolchain>
     <type>jdk</type>
     <provides>
         <version>1.5</version>
         <vendor>sun</vendor>
         <id>i_hate_maven_2</id>
     </provides>
     <configuration>
        <jdkHome>C:program filesjavajdk1.6.0_02</jdkHome>
     </configuration>
  </toolchain>
</toolchains>

Invalid task ‘clean package’, you must specify a valid lifecycle phase.

You are trying to run a single task called “clean package”. Try instead running Maven twice using “clean” and “package” as two separate tasks.
