Hi - total noob here (and hope I'm asking this question in the right place).  Just working my way though the WKND setup and am getting a Build Error when running "mvn -PautoInstallBundle clean install" in the /core folder:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project aem-guides-wknd.core: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.adobe.aem.guides:aem-guides-wknd.core:jar:0.0.2:The following artifacts could not be resolved: com.adobe.aem:uber-jar:jar:apis:6.5.0, org.apache.commons:commons-imaging:jar:1.0-R1534292, com.day.commons:day-commons-gfx:jar:2.1.28: Could not find artifact com.adobe.aem:uber-jar:jar:apis:6.5.0 in central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2) -> [Help 1]

Any ideas how I can fix this?

Hi Blairrr,

 

did you register the Adobe public repo as explained below step two of the tutorial (Verify that the adobe-public profile is active by running the following command...)?

 

You should check that

mvn help:effective-settings

 lists the profile 'adobe-public' and if it doesn't change your maven settings according to this documentation:

Set up a Local AEM Development Environment

 

Cheers

Yes - all steps up to that point went well. My response is a little different to the documentation, but 'adobe-public' is there.

Initially, I thought I'd try ignoring these errors and carried on through the tutorial, but when I was editing the Hello World component I found my edits (in Eclipse) wouldn't show up CRXDE Lite or my local AEM instance of my 'Component Basics' page, so I back-tracked to where I started seeing errors and figured I'd better get everything setup good and proper.

Hi @Blaiirrr !

It doesn't look like the adobe-public profile is active... you should see something like 

<activation>

        <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>

      </activation> 

or

<activeProfiles>

    <activeProfile>adobe-public</activeProfile>

  </activeProfiles>

 

Do you mind posting your full ~/.m2/settings.xml file?

Avatar

Well - color me stupid!  It looks like I did miss a step because I didn't even have a .m2/settings.xml file.  I've created it as instructed and now my build errors are no more , and I see my Hello World component updates too.  Many thanks for your responses, and I apologize for wasting your time.

Hi @Blaiirrr no time wasted at all! I'm sure this thread will help others who are also new to AEM. Good luck!

Hi,

 

you definitely saved my time, had the same issue, this thread helped me to understand quickly where the issue was, got the settings file, all works well now.

Cheers!
