Andrew Phillips commented on MNG-4687: -------------------------------------- I ran into this problem setting up a Maven project to be hosted by the de-facto "Maven people" themselves on the Nexus OSS server [1], and got the following answer from Juven Xu at Sonatype: > From: Juven Xu <....@sonatype.com> > Subject: Re: Inheriting from oss-parent for Nexus releases causes warning? > > IMO Maven should not log this warning if no relativePath is specified. The > project structure has no problem, it's a problem of Maven. So I guess that should count as another +1 vote ;-) [1] https://docs.sonatype.org/display/repository/sonatype+oss+maven+repository+usage+guide#SonatypeOSSMavenRepositoryUsageGuide-7.POMandsettingsconfig > Maven should not warn about incorrect parent path when no relativePath is > specified > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-4687 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4687 > Project: Maven 2 & 3 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Logging > Affects Versions: 3.0-beta-1 > Reporter: Paul Gier > Priority: Minor > Attachments: MNG-relativePath.zip > > > If a module pom uses a parent other than the one in the parent directory, > maven logs a warning.
