I did not have this issue on my macbook air but on the iMac I faced a problem when trying to build and deploy my demo app.
I would get errors like this:
[WARNING] The POM for javax.servlet:jstl:jar:1.2 is missing, no dependency information available
Took a few Google searches to find an article that recommended to replace this section:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>jstl</artifactId>
<version>1.2</version>
</dependency>
With this:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet.jsp.jstl</groupId>
<artifactId>jstl-api</artifactId>
<version>1.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.web</groupId>
<artifactId>jstl-impl</artifactId>
<version>1.2</version>
</dependency>
As soon as I saved the modified pom.xml it downloaded the dependencies and the new “perform package” produced a working app on the tc server.
Next: more advanced demo app and then something of my own.
