compiling a Java EE 6 project using maven fails
I am a beginner in Java EE 6 and now trying to learn Java EE 6 with help of a book 'Java EE 6 novice to professional'. It is using maven to build a project, but when I tried to compile the downloaded source code of that book without using any IDE it fails and showing some errors as follows
C:\Utilities\Java utilities\Java EE 6 book source programs\Chapter02\src>mvn compile

As I am not familiar even with j2ee, I couldn't solve it. Can anyone help me???
It seems that you are missing a pom.xml file.
It looks like it is a problem with maven, not java (ee). You have to create a pom.xml file for your project to tell maven which dependencies your program has and how to compile the program. Unfortunately I am not very familiar with maven, but I suggest that you read a maven beginner tutorial.
Not sure if you've fixed the issue. I think you need to run the mvn compile command from here:
C:\Utilities\Java utilities\Java EE 6 book source programs\Chapter02>
that is because this the pom.xml is in this folder.
