Arnaud Heritier updated MRELEASE-271: ------------------------------------- Component/s: prepare > perform goal sometimes fails with multi-module projects > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-271 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-271 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: prepare > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-4, 2.0-beta-6 > Environment: XP > Reporter: David Hoffer > Attachments: MavenReleaseFailure.zip, SuccessfulReleaseBuild.txt > > > We have a multi-module maven project that has recently started failing in the > release:perform goal. > We have just added a couple more modules but do not know if that is the cause > of the failure. It seems that the release:perform fails to compile the > source after the SCM tag and checkout. The failure says that it cannot find > a dependent jar but it is that jar that it is supposed to be building and > releasing! I updated to use the latest 2.0-beta-6 release plugin version but > this did not help. > Upon receiving feedback in the maven users group that others have seen this > behavior I followed their advise and added <configuration> > <preparationGoals>clean install</preparationGoals></configuration> to my > parent pom which did fix the problem. > Why is the release goal failing now? When do I and when do I not need these > changes to my pom? I will attach pom and build logs in hopes this can be > fixed soon, let me know if you need additional information. > -Dave -- 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
