i've updated the docs, they were a little out of date https://docs.lucee.org/guides/Various/lucee-maven.html

pom is failing for

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.lucee</groupId>
  <artifactId>lucee-jar</artifactId>
  <version>5.3.8.206</version>
</dependency>

have i got it wrong?

no

-jar

, see the above page?

i think we are using the word artefact to mean different things I can get the jar and exclude transitives with

<dependency>
			<groupId>org.lucee</groupId>
			<artifactId>lucee</artifactId>
			<version>5.3.8.206</version>
			<exclusions>
				<exclusion>
					<groupId>javax.el</groupId>
					<artifactId>javax.el-api</artifactId>
				</exclusion>
				<exclusion>
					<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
					<artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
				</exclusion>
				<exclusion>
					<groupId>javax.servlet.jsp</groupId>
					<artifactId>jsp-api</artifactId>
				</exclusion>
				<exclusion>
					<groupId>org.apache.ant</groupId>
					<artifactId>ant</artifactId>
				</exclusion>
				<exclusion>
					<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
					<artifactId>org.apache.felix.framework</artifactId>
				</exclusion>
				<exclusion>
					<groupId>org.lucee</groupId>
					<artifactId>argon2</artifactId>
				</exclusion>
			</exclusions>
		</dependency>

but I cant see just a simple jar in either repo it might be easier to go down the ant root similar to the script runner
