I want to use Shindig as an OpenSocial container. In order to do that I want to add more features to Shindig's current ones, thus I have to build its source code locally.
I have downloaded the source code from Shindig's SVN at: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/shindig/trunk/ I'm trying to build it using Maven (3.0.3) but with no success. I get the following compilation errors:
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal

I see that Shindig 2.0 was released a year ago, maybe there is a mismatch between Shindig's code to its dependencies? How can I eliminate these errors? Thanks, Tomer
This looks like a mismatch between some version of Jetty and the code in Shindig.
You may have local maven artifacts or a custom maven configuration. If that's the case you can remove them and try again. On unix-like systems this involves removing the contents of the ~/.m2/repository.
