Hi Milos,


Thanks for your answer.

I am using maven 2.0.9 under Debian. When I try to execute the "package" goal I
get these errors:

[ERROR]Failed to load external profiles from project directory:
[ERROR]/home/wouter/dev/vp/workspace/vpa
[ERROR]Error message:
[ERROR]Unrecognised tag: 'settings' (position: START_TAG seen <?xml version="1.0"?>\n<settings>... @2:11)
[ERROR]Line: 
[ERROR]Column:
[ERROR]Project Id: nl.amis.vp:vpa:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT
[ERROR]From file: /home/wouter/dev/vp/workspace/vpa/pom.xml
[ERROR]Some tips:
[ERROR] - XSD location: http://maven.apache.org/xsd/profiles-1.0.0.xsd

It looks like MevenIDE doesn't like my profiles.xml file. It looks like this

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<settings>
    <activeProfiles>
        <activeProfile>glassfish</activeProfile>
        <activeProfile>oracle</activeProfile>
    </activeProfiles>
</settings>

Any idea how I may improve it?


Thanks, Wouter
