Maven: 1.7.4 openejb dependancy fails

Question

Wanted to make use of openejb on top of tomcat v7 using maven instead of installing tomee. Referring to Apache documentation, 3 dependencies have to be added to the maven project.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.openejb</groupId>
    <artifactId>javaee-api</artifactId>
    <version>6.0-6</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.openejb</groupId>
    <artifactId>openejb-core</artifactId>
    <version>4.7.4</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.openejb</groupId>
    <artifactId>tomee</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.4</version>
</dependency>

but the last depency generates following error: Missing artifact org.apache.openejb:tomee:jar:1.7.4

could somebody explains the downvote? – eric A Mar 14 '16 at 17:40 — eric A, Mar 14 '16 at 17:40

The correct artifactId being visible in: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.openejb/apache-tomee/1.7.4 is apache-tomee and not tomee so, replace the last depency by the following one and the problem will be solved:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.openejb</groupId>
    <artifactId>apache-tomee</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.4</version>
</dependency>
