["Maria Catherine Tan (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-2507?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=220135#action_220135 ] 

Maria Catherine Tan commented on CONTINUUM-2507:
------------------------------------------------

I tried running mvn release:prepare for a POM with BOM at the start of the text stream in the command line and I'm getting the same error. Running clean install didn't work as well and I'm using maven 2.2.1 

What maven version did you use? 

Can you also give a sample project for this. Thanks!

> I have a Visual Studio project, when I do perform release in Continuum it results in: Release Error Unable to get release plugin parameters and process project - only whitespace content allowed before start tag and not \uef (position: START_DOCUMENT seen \uef... @1:1). The error doesn't indicate which file Continuum is having a problem processing. After some time spent investigating the files, I noticed the BOM character was in the POM causing the error in release. Additionally,I was able to successfully run 'mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true -DautoVersionSubmodules=true' at the command line.
