Note: this Maven configuration provides access to Jive binaries and sources via the maven-secure.jivesoftware.com server; it requires login access.  See the bottom of the document where to put your login information.

If you are a licensed customer or Jive partner and require access, please contact Gregory Weinger

Where to Put This

VERY IMPORTANT: you need to put this in ~/.m2/ if you are on Unix/Mac or in your user home/.m2 directory ("C:\Documents and Settings\your username\.m2") on Windows.  See How-To: Install Maven for more information if this doesn't make sense.


If you don't put settings.xml in the right location, Maven won't find your dependencies.   This is the #1 reason people experience Maven issues.

Alternatively, you can run Maven with a command line switch pointing to settings.xml in a different location, like this:

mvn -s C:\Jive\maven\settings.xml
