[IPT] How to build IPT from source?

[Tim Robertson]

Hi Francisco,

I have just built the IPT using a fresh local maven repository and can confirm it works, so this seems likely to be some kind of repository mirroring issue that you see which we don’t.

itext was not moved to the new artifact / group until version 5.0.6 [1] so that is not the issue and indeed you can see central still has it on the download link on the page [2]  

Can you please try and change the repositories in the pom.xml to this:

  <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>gbif-all</id>
      <url>http://repository.gbif.org/content/groups/gbif</url>
    </repository>
    <repository>
      <id>gbif-thirdparty</id>
      <url>http://repository.gbif.org/content/repositories/thirdparty</url>
    </repository>
   <!— Added by Francisco —>
    <repository>
      <id>gbif-central-mirror</id>
      <url>http://repository.gbif.org/content/repositories/central/</url>
    </repository>  
  </repositories>

and then try a rebuild?

You might even try and force a new local maven repository (which is what I did to confirm the artifacts still come across the web using -Dmaven.repo.local=<some new directory>.  

This is what I did:
  $ mvn package -Dmaven.repo.local=/tmp/m2

Can you please let us know how that works?

Thanks,
Tim
