Error merging velocity templates

[frasese]

Running the basic example command throws this error : [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:3.0.0:generate (default-cli) on project standalone-pom: org.apache.maven.archetype.exception.ArchetypeGenerationFailure: Error merging velocity templates: Lexical error, Encountered: "l" (108), after : "." at archetype-resources/tool/src/java/tool/pages/ThirdPage.java[line 175, column 54] -> [Help 1]

Everything worked perfect a couple of weeks ago.

Has this issue been solved yet?

I think this was solved by a878623, however there doesn't seem to have been a newer release since then so you might still be seeing it.

I can't manage to reproduce it though with Maven 3.5.0 and Java 8 so it maybe that upgrading your maven version will make it go away. Alternatively you can force maven to use an earlier version of the archetype plugin. 2.4, seems to work:

 mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.4:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.sakaiproject.maven-archetype -DarchetypeArtifactId=sakai-wicket-maven-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.5.0 -DgroupId=org.sakaiproject.example -DartifactId=exampleApp

I'll try to push up a new version today.
