The reason is that the jboss rpm installs the files in /usr/share/jboss-as, owned by the root:jboss-as, so a non privileged user will not have permission to write to those directories.
Stephen, what I suggested you to do is to leave the installation of the application server in the /home/satimis/jboss-as directory and then modify the /home/satimis/.m2/settings.xml file. It should read as follows:
<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
<activeProfiles> <activeProfile>oVirt</activeProfile> </activeProfiles>
<profiles> <profile> <id>oVirt</id> <properties> <jbossHome>/home/satimis/jboss-as</jbossHome> </properties> </profile> </profiles>
</settings>
Also you don't need to start the jboss-as service, as ovirt doesn't use it. In a development environment you just go to /home/satimis/jboss-as/bin and run standalone.sh.
Also make sure that you own the /home/satimis/jboss-as directory:
sudo chown --recursive satimis:satimis /home/satimis/jboss-as
Hi Juan, Thanks for your advice. Performed following steps: $ sudo gedit /home/satimis/.m2/settings.xml change; <jbossHome>/usr/share/jboss-as</jbossHome> to <jbossHome>/home/satimis/jboss-as</jbossHome> $ sudo chown -R satimis:satimis /home/satimis/jboss-as I have to re-run following commands; $> git clone git://gerrit.ovirt.org/ovirt-engine $> export OVIRT_HOME=$PWD/ovirt-engine $> cd $OVIRT_HOME/backend/manager/dbscripts #> ./create_db_devel.sh -u postgres Build ===== $> cd $OVIRT_HOME $> mvn clean install .... .....

Let me insist that if the build runs correctly what you will have is an environment that you can use for development, it is not suitable or designed for using ovirt. If what you want to do is test ovirt from the user point of view then I strongly recommend that you use the prebuilt RPMs.
I have another hard drive testing the prebuilt RPMs. Thanks B.R. Stephen L
