mvn deploy to AWS (ssh via distributionManagement)
- by Dexter
I am working on deploying the WAR file to AWS using Maven. I am planning to use 'mvn deploy' for the same which would ssh the war file to AWS.
I am following http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-deploy-plugin/examples/deploy-ssh-external.html. 
This is my POM file
<project>
  ...
  <distributionManagement>
    <repository>
      <id>ssh-aws</id>
      <url>scpexe://<ec2 instance>.compute-1.amazonaws.com</url>
    </repository>
  </distributionManagement>
  <build>
    <extensions>
      <!-- Enabling the use of FTP -->
      <extension>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
         <artifactId>wagon-ssh-external</artifactId>
         <version>1.0-beta-6</version>
      </extension>
    </extensions>
  </build>
  ..
</project>
This is my settings.xml
<server>
    <id>ssh-aws</id>
    <username>aws-user</username>
</server>
The only issue is that I am unable to figure out the url in distributionManagement node of pom.xml.
I am able to ssh in the AWS server by the following.
ssh -i ~/pemfile/pemfile-key.pem aws-user@<ec2 instance>.compute-1.amazonaws.com
But when I run mvn clean deploy, I receive this..
Exit code: 1 - Permission denied (publickey). -> [Help 1]
Thanks in advance.
