Thank you Vincent for your prompt reply. I downloaded the 1.1 version for the web application but started to run into the infamous "gnujaxp.jar" problem. I ran into the same problem in some other projects too. I followed your advice (from another thread) and added the highlighted exclusion statements in the  pom.xml for the core. 
 
    <!-- Version 1.0.0-rc1 has some bad dependencies in the POM. This is fixed in 1.0.0 but unfortunately we're
         using an API (setDataAreaRatio()) that has disappeared in 1.0.0 so we need to fix this before we can
         move to 1.0.0 or beyond... See http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-390.
         Note: when we move to using the central repo version we'll only need 1 dependency on jfreechart -->
    <dependency>
      <groupId>jfree</groupId>
      <artifactId>jfreechart</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0-rc1</version>
   <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>gnujaxp</groupId>
          <artifactId>gnujaxp</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
      </exclusions>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>jfree</groupId>
      <artifactId>jcommon</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.5</version>
    </dependency>
 
Everything seems to work now.  I recommend we add this in the pom so other folks won't run into the same issue again before xwiki-390 is fixed.
 
Thanks

Folks,
 
I am trying to pull the source code for xwki 1.1 and build it. However, after eluding from this list for several month, I no longer knows how to build it. I built xwiki 1.0 before via ant and I have used maven 2 before, but I am not quite sure which module should I checkout and choose if I just want to get the xwiki application(not the tools or add on modules).
 
I have browsed the documentations from xwiki.org's community site, but I am not quite sure where should I start. My questions are the following:
1.  What are the minimum set of modules should I choose to download for just the xwiki web application? (not the panels, tools, plugins etc. just the core application which can build a .war like xwiki 1.0 or 0.984) The xwiki platform or xwiki product?
 

 
The following pages should provide some information:

 
I guess you're talking about building the platform WAR. You just need to check out that module and run "mvn install" as described in  http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building 

2. I used to be able to download a specific release vesion of the source code, but now I cannot find any version tagged by 1.1 but checking the history of xwiki-platform or xwiki-products

 
It's still the case but whereas xwiki was a small project before it's now a larger project with several products (XE, XEM, Watch, Curriki) + a platform on which sits the products. We all need to describe this better on the  http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/SourceRepository page. Help is most welcome.

 
In addition to that we're modularizing xwiki so that modules can have different release lifecycles.

 
The 1.1 tag for the Platform WAR is available at:
svn://svn.forge.objectweb.org/svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-platform/web/tags/xwiki-web-1.1.0

3. Is ant build still supported or maven 2 is required now?

 
Maven2 is the only build now.

 
Thanks
-Vincent
