Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2010-10-18 18:03:22 UTC 
The NB installation location must be set in settings.xml. Did not realize this archetype needed that parameter. Running the Module Suite wizard does this, so that is probably the best workaround for now.

Anyway it is best not to use (standalone) Module or Module Suite archetypes for Maven; better to create a Platform Application and add modules to it. The resulting project will be portable, since the NB platform is taken from the Maven repository, not your local installation.
