Maven Assembly Plugin

[Dooing]

Hi,

I am trying to create a zip file containing all static web content, to be put 
on a separate Apache server. The Maven Assembly plugin seems to be meant to be 
used for such a task - http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/

According to the instructions given, I added:
<plugins>
...
<plugin>
  <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <descriptors>
            <descriptor>${basedir}/my-maven-assembly-desc.xml</descriptor>
          </descriptors>
        </configuration>
        </plugin>
</plugins>

to my parent pom.

Then I created the file my-maven-assembly-desc.xml in the base directory of my 
subproject:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<assembly>
        <id>myzip</id>
        <formats>
                <format>zip</format>
        </formats>
        <fileSets>
                <fileSet>
                        <includes>
                                <include>**/*.css</include>
                                <include>**/*.js</include>
                                <include>**/*.pdf</include>
                                <include>**/favicon.ico</include>
                                <include>**/*.gif</include>
                                <include>**/*.jpg</include>
                                <include>**/*.png</include>
                                <include>**/robots.txt</include>
                                <include>**/*.xsd</include>
                        </includes>
                </fileSet>
        </fileSets>
        <includeBaseDirectory>true</includeBaseDirectory>
        <includeSiteDirectory>false</includeSiteDirectory>
</assembly>

However, when executing mvn assembly:assembly I get this error:

[INFO] [assembly:assembly]
[INFO] Reading assembly descriptor: D:\MYPROJECT/my-maven-assembly-desc.xml
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Failed to create assembly: Error creating assembly archive myzip: You 
must set at least one file.

Any ideas what's wrong here?


Thanks in advance!

Stefanie
