TomVanWemmel opened a new issue, #939: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-enforcer/issues/939
### Affected version 3.6.2 ### Bug description I found myself in a situation where I wanted to create a new code repository. I have a script that creates a default structure with two files in the `.mvn` folder One is `extensions.xml` ```xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <extensions xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/EXTENSIONS/1.1.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/EXTENSIONS/1.1.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/core-extensions-1.1.0.xsd";> <extension> <groupId>org.apache.maven.extensions</groupId> <artifactId>maven-enforcer-extension</artifactId> <version>3.6.2</version> </extension> </extensions> ``` The other is `enforcer-extension.xml` ```xml <extension> <executions> <execution> <configuration> <rules> <requireMavenVersion> <version>(3.6.3,)</version> </requireMavenVersion> <requireJavaVersion> <version>17</version> </requireJavaVersion> </rules> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </extension> ``` Next in my routine is to generate a project from an archetype ``` mvn archetype:generate -Denforcer.skip ``` And the enforcer extension throws an exception ``` [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] [INFO] ------------------< org.apache.maven:standalone-pom >------------------- [INFO] Building Maven Stub Project (No POM) 1 [INFO] --------------------------------[ pom ]--------------------------------- [INFO] [INFO] >>> archetype:3.4.1:generate (default-cli) > generate-sources @ standalone-pom >>> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 0.164 s [INFO] Finished at: 2025-10-10T10:14:24+02:00 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-enforcer-plugin:3.6.2:enforce (default-extension): Goal requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory (/tmp/extension). Please verify you invoked Maven from the correct directory. -> [Help 1] [ERROR] [ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e switch.

[ERROR] [ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please read the following articles: [ERROR] [Help 1] http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/MissingProjectException ``` For me this is a minor inconvenience, but I was wondering if this behavior is correct. I suppose `enforcer.skip` would be a POM property, overwritten by the JVM config. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
