I'm trying to set up a Struts2 project using the struts2-archetype-blank archetype as pointed out in Struts wiki.
mvn archetype:generate -B -DgroupId=tutorial -DartifactId=tutorial -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.struts -DarchetypeArtifactId=struts2-archetype-blank -DarchetypeVersion=2.1.8
However I get the following error:
[INFO] Archetype repository missing. Using the one from [org.apache.struts:strus2-archetype-blank:2.3.8] found in catalog remote
Downloading: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/struts/struts2-archetype-
lank/2.1.8/struts2-archetype-blank-2.1.8.jar

Do I need a particular repository in my Maven config to use this archetype?

I think you can use just
mvn archetype:generate -B -DgroupId=tutorial -DartifactId=tutorial -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.struts -DarchetypeArtifactId=struts2-archetype-blank
without
-DarchetypeVersion=2.1.8
to use the latest version available (currently 2.3.8), the 2.1.8 is not available in the central repo.
