I am trying to generate a project as instructed by a third party. However, for an unknown reason it is not working. Given my limited knowledge, I will be grateful is someone can point me in the right direction to solve this issue.
I did a
mvn archetype:crawl
then I am trying to create my project in interactive mode as follow:
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=local
I am presented with the only available choice. Here is the complete dialog:
C:\Projets\OO_Actions\LoadFile>mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=local

I wonder why I receive a message saying the archetype doesn't exist while it was actually presented as the only valid choice. What am I missing?
