Maven build not working.

[LeifWarner]

jruby -S rake builds the thing just fine, though.
Any maven task I try fails on this part:
[INFO] --- jruby-rake-plugin:1.6.7:jruby (bundle-install) @ jruby-rack ---
[INFO] Fetching gem metadata from http://rubygems.org/...........
[INFO]
[INFO] Gem::Exception: Cannot load gem at [file:/home/leif/.m2/repository/org/jruby/jruby-complete/1.6.7/jruby-complete-1.6.7.jar!/META-INF/jruby.home/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/cache/rake-0.9.2.2.gem] in /tmp/jruby-rack
[INFO] An error occured while installing rake (0.9.2.2), and Bundler cannot continue.
[INFO] Make sure that gem install rake -v '0.9.2.2' succeeds before bundling.

And yes, that command succeeds. I have tag 1.1.6 checked out.
Even though the rake task works for build, I would like to get maven working - I was hoping to published a hacked-up version of this jar to our own maven repo for us to use.

[LeifWarner]

"gem env" lists $JRUBY_HOME/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 and $HOME/.gem/jruby/1.8
The only thing I have installed in the latter is bundler. The former is full of the rest of the stuff specified in Gemfile.lock. That path above is curious - wondering why it's trying to load rake out of the jruby jar, rather than the one in $JRUBY_HOME gems.

I think I'm seeing a similar issue right now, due to the fact that $GEM_HOME is interpreted as being inside a jar file.

[WARNING] ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)

Can you try the following in your project and post results here:

$ mvn org.jruby.plugins:jruby-rake-plugin:irb

The workaround to this is to do e.g. export GEM_HOME=~/.gem/jruby/1.8 in your environment to a directory before launching maven.

[LeifWarner]

export GEM_HOME=/opt/jruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 seems to work for me. Should this be mentioned in the docs?

...but then it fails later with:

trying to run some rspec tests, I imagine.
Even if I invoke it w/
mvn package -DskipTests

[kares]

that is very weird - can not reproduce ... but here's how you skip specs : mvn package -Dmaven.test.skip=true
