Hi there,
it’s always the same. I’m forced to learn new frameworks, I’m trying to use the given tutorials to get a quickstart and a first look at one of those frameworks, and just NOTHING works from scratch. After searching google for a couple of hours now, I’ll hope to find some help here.
In general, I’m trying to follow the steps given in point
2.5.1. Creating the Project
to generate a first Vaadin 7 - project to start playing around with the framework itself. Following the steps, there seems to be one ‘main error’ within my project:
Error while resolving dependencies for ivy.xml[*]
in vaadin-test
/Users/andre/.ivy2/cache/resolved-com.example-v7proj-working@appleleptiker.fritz.box.xml
(No such file or directory)
This error results in 24 other errors regarding missing Vaadin libraries. I’m using OS X 10.9 and the latest stable releases of Eclipse (Kepler) JEE and Ivy (2.3.0). I tried to use maven for setting up a project, but but my knowledge about maven is very rudimentary.
I created a maven project using this line
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.vaadin -DarchetypeArtifactId=vaadin-archetype-application -DarchetypeVersion=7.1.14 -DgroupId=k.andre -DartifactId=vaadin-test -Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=war
in terminal, then imported it to eclipse using the m2e-wizard. Taking a first look at the project tree, everything seems to be OK, but running
mvn package tomcat:run
will result in a list of a couple of errors, for example
java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature)
parsing some jar-file (VAADIN/themes/mytheme?).
Hope you’ll can help me out here on this one.
