Re: [xwiki-devs] help for building

thanks Cristian, had forgotten about profiles (which also seem to be about applications...). In any case... now I see my mvn build throws a lot of exceptions (not fatal errors) because it could not connect to the DB which, indeed, I had not configured. Is that needed or ignoreable ? And if yes, where ? (ideally somewhere in ~/build.properties or so?). Should that DB be the "production DB" (I guess not!). Just a build-scratch? Something in the middle? thanks again paul Le 2 janv. 08 à 01:07, Cristian Vrabie a écrit : > Try using maven profiles: run "mvn clean install -Pmysql" in the > root folder (xwiki-product-curriki).
