Can't use maven-install-plugin with <goal>install-file</goal> in POM --------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MINSTALL-29 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINSTALL-29 Project: Maven 2.x Install Plugin Type: Bug Versions: 2.2 Environment: WinXP, running M2 in Cygwin Reporter: Brad Harper Priority: Minor This issue is related to another I submitted recently. In fact, the earlier issue was encounted in an earlier attempt to get the same results. (see bottom, below.) Consider the POM descriptor containing <pluginRepositories> <pluginRepository> <id>snapshots</id> <url>http://svn.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository</url> </pluginRepository> </pluginRepositories> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <executions> <execution> <id>install-library</id> <phase>install</phase> <goals> <goal>install-file</goal> </goals> <configuration> <groupId>com.epsiia.dxr.third-party</groupId> <artifactId>dxr-third-party-WINDOWS-X86-com-emc-centera-fplibrary-lib</artifactId> <version>2.0SP1</version> <packaging>lib</packaging> <file>FPLibrary.lib</file> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> M2 fails to build in this project because all </configuration> elements are read-only. [I'm attempting to use the 2.2-SNAPSHOT because I get the same error in stable versions. ] Shouldn't this execution be allowable and equivalent to the CLI invocation % mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.epsiia.dxr.third-party .. I'm trying to create a mind-numbingly simple environment, so that other less-experienced developers aren't required to know which of the third-party libraries need to be manually installed via once-only occurances should the local repository need to be re-constructed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
