Michael Osipov updated MWAR-448:
--------------------------------
Fix Version/s: waiting-for-feedback
> packaging dependencies fails with "mvn install" but not "mvn package"
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MWAR-448
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-448
> Project: Maven WAR Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.3.2
> Environment: maven 3.6.3 ( later versions have bugs which we can't
> take in)
> Reporter: Kari J. Niemi
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: waiting-for-feedback

>
> I think we discovered a minor odd difference with war-packaging between "mvn
> package" or "mvn install". We would expect that only difference between the
> two is that the latter also installs the produced stuff in the local maven
> repository.
>
> We are packaging a few jars to a war. We have a parent pom with some modules,
> and that is defined as a dependency in the pom.xml that produces a
> war-package. Like this:
> my-war-thingie:pom.xml (packaging:war)
> * dependency: some-parent
> some-parent:pom.xml (packaging:pom)
> * module1 (packaging:jar)
> * module2 (packaging:jar)
> Earlier we had a different structure and everything was just fine: we did not
> the have the child-modules but the parent-pom produced the jar. When we
> changed the structure to the one described above: our CI was still OK, some
> developers building OK as well -but some developers had failing maven builds
> because of missing "some-parent.jar".
>
> It was bit of devastating hunt, but finally we discovered that "mvn package"
> was building OK, but "mvn install" looks for "some-parent.jar".
> We don't actually mind if the above scenario would fail in both cases, or if
> it was successful - we would just expect that it works the same way for both.
> If this is intended behaviour, it would be nice to have it documented.
> FWIW: in our case, we anyway wanted to define direct dependencies from the
> war-packaging to the child-modules. So actually, we are OK wih our builds
> already. But the difference caused so may doubts about our builds
> reproducibility - and also, it seems like a bug - so I wanted to be good
> citizen and report the problem.
> Edit: further note from our troubleshooting sessions: we don't have the
> "type" for the dependency at all in my-war-thingie:pom.xml. Yesterday, we did
> experiment setting the type as "pom" -and as a consequence, both "mvn
> package" and "mvn install" were successful. The default as we know,
> should/would be "jar". Maybe the missing dependency type is for some odd
> reason resolved differently for "maven package" and "maven install"?
