Hi

Netbeans 7.0 complains for the very same maven project that Netbeans 6.9.1 opens without a problem. Has anybody else faced this?

I am using Netbeans 7. I think it's the stupid Windows security that is doing this. Netbeans 7.0 is working fine on my Ubuntu.

I tried installing in C:\ root directory to see if I will find any luck. I tried moving the .netbeans to C:\ root directory to see if that will work. Nothing has worked so far.

Hi,
can you show your pom.xml ?
NB6.9 uses (internal) Maven 2 and NB7 Maven3. Did you try to use external Maven binaries ? (Maven2 with NB7)

I can't show the pom, but I can tell that I used external Maven 2, which successfully build the projects. When I tried to build the projects with internal NB7 maven I got an error. I believe the problem may be connected with projects that contains modules, because some projects open fine. Here is one more post pointing to the problem with maven projects with modules http://forums.netbeans.org/viewtopic.php?t=38465.

Hi

I had external maven configured when I was using 6.9. When I installed 7.0 it imported the configuration from 6.9 which also configured the external maven in 7.0. Essentially I am using external Maven 2.2.1 in Netbeans 7.0.

By the way I think its worth mentioning that I am defending Netbeans against in IDE wars here !!! So please help me stay proud.

Aight

First of all, for the impatient the solution is to copy the settings.xml into ${user_home}\.m2 directory. ( Ex: C:\Users\Venkat\.m2 ( On Windows 7 )).

I found the reason why this is happening. There is only one way to specify maven settings.xml in Netbeans. As in it is not possible to specify project specific maven settings. You typically configure it in Tools -> Options -> Maven.

If my understanding is right Netbeans uses this settings.xml that is configured in options only during building. It does not use this for any netbeans related stuff ( like for reading through the project and its modules. ) This is the reason the project was showing this error.

If this is how Netbeans deals with the settings.xml, there is room for improvement.

It seams that NB7 do not understand profiles.xml from the projects built with external maven 2. It's a pity, I have to stick to 6.9.1 while working on old projects.

Alniks,
I can confirm what you said regarding profiles.xml, I'll just add more details:

Comparing Netbeans 6.9.1 to 7.0
Both have defined external installation of maven 2.2.1 (tools->options->miscellaneous->maven->maven home field)

Create new Maven project
Netbeans 6.9.1: File, New Project, Categories=Maven, Projects=Maven Project, Next, Maven Archetypes=Maven Quickstart Archetype, project details
Netbeans 7.0: New Project, Categories=Maven, Projects=Java Application, project details

Create profiles.xml
extend the project node, right click on the Project Files node
Netbeans 6.9.1: context menu containing Create profiles.xml is displayed
Netbeans 7.0: not possible to create profiles.xml

Open project with profiles.xml
Netbeans 6.9.1: the profiles.xml file is visible under the Project Files node
Netbeans 7.0: the profiles.xml is not visible in the Projects pane

Having the project opened at previous step, look for the profile definitions
Right click on the project node, Properties, Categories=Configurations.
Netbeans 6.9.1: The profiles defined in profiles.xml are present under Configurations
Netbeans 7.0: The profiles defined in profiles.xml are not present under Configurations

I find the change decision very consistent - not supporting profiles.xml at all. I guess the decisions were made based on the fact that profiles.xml is no longer supported in maven 3.0.
A backwards compatible love would be to check what maven version the user is using and based on that to deploy the old or the profile.xml-less behaviour.

I guess the following holds true:
Using old style? use the old NetBeans 6.9.1.
NetBeans 7 encourage new styles. Want it? migrate your profiles to settings.xml

Netbeans 7.0 comes with Maven 3. You might need to configure it to use Maven 2 for your projects.

profiles.xml files have been removed in maven 3.0.

Changing maven installation to external maven 2 doesn't help. Though, as I wrote, projects are built fine after change.
