Unable to obtain central repository." To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/801200#801200 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, This is my first time ever utilizing JBoss, so please be kind :-)  The problem that I'm having is trying to associate the Maven archetype with the Ticket-Monster turorial.  I have set up Maven, and the jboss-as-7.1.1.Final Server starts up successfully.  Unfortunately, no matter what I do.  I am unable to advance past this point.  These are the sequences of steps that I have taken thus far: 1) Successfully Installed Maven.  I know this because when I issue the mvn --version command I get 2) But upon trying to proceed with the various processes to create the project I get  (As indicated earlier, the jboss-as-7.1.1.Final Server starts up successfully) : 3) Other parameter inputs. 4) And ultimately, the treaded Error. *What have I have tried?* -pointing the Maven User settings to this, but was still unsuccessful. -and even tried pointing to the settings.xml file in the apache-maven directory.  I have also tried modifying the contents within the settings.xml file itself, to what Apache advises me to use.  However, again no success.  Can someone please help me.  I have been stuck on this for the last 2 weeks. Very Respectfully, Charles -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/801200#801200] Start a new discussion in Beginner's Corner at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
