## Building the Source

Build the FUSE Message Broker distribution using the instructions in this section.

### Build Commands

Follow these steps to build the entire distribution.

1. Change to the `src` subdirectory of the folder into which you unpacked the source distribution.

2. Run the following command:

       mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true

| Tip
If you have errors building the source distribution, try removing your private Maven repository (``$HOME`/.m2/repository/*`), then running `mvn -U install`.

You can run the same build including all unit tests by removing the `-Dmaven.test.skip=true` argument from the above command. Note that building with tests enabled takes much longer.
