Description

Creating a new project with the given example from Guide to Webapps (http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-webapp.html) does not work and results with

c:\temp> mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-webapp -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp

[...]
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Invalid task 'com.mycompany.app': you must specify a valid lifecycle phase, or a goal in the format plugin:goal or pluginGroupId:pluginArtifactId:pluginVersion:goal
[...]

If you are doing a

echo %MAVEN_CMD_LINE_ARGS%

you will see that the equal signs (=) will not be there. This is because of the use of %$ getting all parameters. Maybe this was the default in 4NT but with Take Command you have to use %*

Tested with TCC LE 11,00,37 Windows XP [Version 5,1,2600]

Testcase:
Execute "mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-webapp -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp" in Take Command. Using the original mvn.bat it will result in the error above. If this error is fixed, a project will be created successfully.

Created a little patch for maven2 and 3.

I'm new to maven, but this issue had me scratching my head for almost the entire day. I assumed I was doing something wrong when the property value I was passing in from the command line wasn't being translated correctly.

I applied Andre's patch and everything works beautifully now. I hope this fix makes it into a standard release.

I also can confirm that Andre's patch works perfectly and fixes the issue on TakeCommand.

I confirmed fixed on the full, registered version: TCC 12.10.58 Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601], and the following free versions: TCC LE 13.04.63 x64 Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]
TCC LE 13.06.76 x64 Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601].

Like Jeff I spent a long time trying to figure this one out – the five minute guide (http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html) doesn't work without this patch, so for TakeCommand users the impression is that the product doesn't work at all.

Recommend applying the patch ASAP. Thanks.
