Cannot mvn install api-io-asl (Too many unapproved licenses)

[Alain Désilets]

I just did a fresh checkout of dkpro-core 1.12.x and did mvn install. I get the following error for dkpro-core-api-io-asl:

Any idea how to address the issue?

You have a "bin" folder there which is not part of the normal project structure. Maven compiles into "target" and if the project is properly set up as a Maven project in Eclipse/IntellJ, they compile to "target" as well.

Remove the "bin" folder.

That worked, thx. Any idea how that bin directory got there? Just want to prevent that from happening in the future.

"bin" is the default output folder for most Java IDEs I know.
Maybe you had a situation where your IDE wasn't aware it was a Maven project?
