Maven assembly - Error reading assemblies
- by Laurent
Dear all,
I have defined a personalized jar-with-dependencies assembly descriptor. However, when I execute it with mvn assembly:assembly, I get :
...
[INFO] META-INF/ already added, skipping
[INFO] META-INF/MANIFEST.MF already added, skipping
[INFO] javax/ already added, skipping
[INFO] META-INF/ already added, skipping
[INFO] META-INF/MANIFEST.MF already added, skipping
[INFO] META-INF/maven/ already added, skipping
[INFO] [assembly:assembly {execution: default-cli}]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Error reading assemblies: No assembly descriptors found.
My jar-with-dependencies.xml is in src/main/resources/assemblies/.
My assembly descriptor is the following :
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<assembly>
<id>jar-with-dependencies</id>
<formats>
<format>jar</format>
</formats>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>
<scope>runtime</scope>
<unpack>true</unpack>
<unpackOptions>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/LICENSE*</exclude>
<exclude>**/README*</exclude>
</excludes>
</unpackOptions>
</dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>${project.build.outputDirectory}</directory>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
</fileSet>
<fileSet>
<directory>src/main/resources/META-INF/services</directory>
<outputDirectory>META-INF/services</outputDirectory>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</assembly>
And my project pom.xml is :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2-beta-5</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>jar-with-dependencies</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>jar-with-dependencies.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>org.my.app.HowTo</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
When mvn assembly:assembly is performed, dependencies are unpacked and I get the previous error when unpack has finished.
Moreover, if I execute mvn -e assembly:assembly it is say that no descriptors has been found, however it try to unpack dependencies and a JAR with dependencies is created but it doesn't contain META-INF/services/* as specified in descriptor :

I don't see my error. Does someone has a solution ?
Kind Regards
