Can't create new project from vaadin arhectype

General
1

I’m using “mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.vaadin -DarchetypeArtifactId=vaadin-archetype-application -DarchetypeVersion=7.7.7”

However, there is error:
Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:3.0.0:generate (default-cli) on project standalone-pom: The desired archetype does not exist (com.vaadin:vaadin-archetype-application:7.7.7) → [Help 1]

It seems, that there is no parent pom for arhetype:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/vaadin/vaadin-archetypes/7.7.7/vaadin-archetypes-7.7.7.pom - this returns 404.

Have anybode created vadin 7,7 application from archetype?

Doesn’t work for me either. 7.7.3 is the last one that works. I hope the dev fixes this soon.

It seems they fixed it.

But for 8.0.0.rc1 as a workaround you need to write the command with older mvn archetype plugin:

mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.4:generate -DarchetypeVersion=8.0.0.rc1 -DarchetypeGroupId=com.vaadin -DarchetypeArtifactId=vaadin-archetype-application -DarchetypeRepository=http://maven.vaadin.com/vaadin-prereleases
