Cannot execute Maven goal to build Tapestry 5.4.x from Getting started guide nor from the example source using Maven

I try to execute the Maven goal to build and run Apache Tapestry 5.4.x locally but it always failed:

Ideas I tried:

  1. IntelliJ official Plugin arch type
  2. Getting started from tapestry.org
  3. Hotel booking example from GitHub.

Solution

  • After I posted this question to the offical Mailing list. The following Maven command worked:

    mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.4:generate \
     -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.tapestry \
     -DarchetypeArtifactId=quickstart \
     -DarchetypeVersion=5.4.4 \
     -DarchetypeRepository=local
