Creating a KieContainer with a ReleaseId to load a jar from a Nexus repo. The ReleaseId has '-SNAPSHOT' coordinates. I know the jar exists in the repo, that it can be accessed, and that it contains the appropriate .drl files, because when I run my project from the command line, using the Maven exec plugin... mvn exec:java ...everything is fine, the jar is found and pulled, the artifacts appear in the local .m2 repo, the rules get loaded, and I'm able to create and use a KieSession. I can test the rules, and they work. All is well. If I run my project in any other way, with the 'java ' command whilst setting the classpath properly, using the Tanukisoft wrapper, etc. every bit of code runs properly, all necessary jar files are available on the classpath, but the KieScanner tells me it can't find the jar... Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot find KieModule: com.mycompany:mymodule:1.0-SNAPSHOT at org.drools.compiler.kie.builder.impl.KieServicesImpl.newKieContainer(KieServicesImpl.java:86) My home directory seems like it's set correctly and is available from properties as 'user.home', I can see a resolver-status.properties file created at the proper place in the user's .m2/repository, so something knows where the repo is, and has access to it. The resolver-status.properties contains only... #NOTE: This is an internal implementation file, its format can be changed without prior notice. #Fri Mar 21 02:31:03 UTC 2014 maven-metadata-local.xml.lastUpdated=1395369063564 maven-metadata-central.xml.lastUpdated=1395369063955 maven-metadata-central.xml.error= maven-metadata-local.xml.error= No luck, unless I use mvn exec:java, and then everything is fine. However, our normal distribution methodology is not going to allow me to via Maven this way. Anyone happen to know what I'm missing so this will work executing the 'java' command? Some jar maven loads during exec that I'm not including as a dependency? Anything?
