Hi @danish_hussain ,

Due to maven-archetype-plugin version 3.2.1, pom file has 2.4.16 version for groovy-all

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.groovy</groupId>
    <artifactId>groovy-all</artifactId>
    <version>2.4.16</version>
    <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/archetype/archetype-common/3.2.1/archetype-common-3.2.1.pom: <version>2.4.16</version>

post-generate groovy using 2.4.8 version in below annotation. This is creating conflict and showing the error.

@Grab(group="org.codehaus.groovy", module="groovy-all", version="2.4.8")

https://github.com/adobe/aem-project-archetype/blob/develop/src/main/resources/META-INF/archetype-po...

To resolve this issue - you can update 2.4.8 version in below POM under local .m2 repository.

.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/archetype/archetype-common/3.2.1/archetype-common-3.2.1.pom

Hope that helps!

Hi @danish_hussain ,

I would recommend using the later version (Ideally the latest) of the archetype, looks like this was raised as an issue with an older archetype and it has been fixed in the newer version.

See here:-

https://github.com/adobe/aem-project-archetype/issues/857

Hope that helps!

Hello @nitesh_kumar-1,
What is the recommendation from Adobe for the old archetype projects? Since a project has been running for years after years, archetypes and the latest features are coming up by this time.

How should the old projects align with the new archetype? Is there any guideline from Adobe?
Sorry, this is not fully related to this topic. I will be happy to know the answer.
