Question

I need help getting setup on Seam 3 modules. When I try to use the Seam 3 module, persistence, the JBoss Java EE 6 spec cannot be found.

I was reading that I need to use maven 3 or declare the repository where that artifact can be found. I am using maven 3, but still no go.

I need help getting setup on Seam 3 modules. When I try to use the Seam 3 module, persistence, the JBoss Java EE 6 spec cannot be found.

Providing links, some pom.xml snippet or some error trace illustrating a problem is usually helpful.

I was reading that I need to use maven 3 or declare the repository where that artifact can be found. I am using maven 3, but still no go.

Reading where? I highly doubt that using Maven 3 is required and Maven 3 won’t magically resolve more dependencies than Maven 2. My guess is that you’re just missing some repositories.

But since you didn’t say anything about the what/how/where, I can only suggest to add the JBoss Public Repository Group (that contains also java.net artifacts):

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>jboss-public-repository-group</id>
    <name>JBoss Public Repository Group</name>
    <url>http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>
