             Summary: NiFi pom profiles use of activeByDefault does not work as expected and many maven plugin versions are very out of date
                 Key: NIFI-4652
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4652
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Joseph Witt
            Assignee: Joseph Witt
             Fix For: 1.5.0


In working NIFI-4645 we've found profiles dont' quite work as expected due to the maven behavior for profiles with 'activeByDefault' being automatically disabled anytime other methods of activation activate any other profile within the same pom.  This leads to builds not working as we expect.  Need to audit, improve, and document a new profile management strategy.

Further, in reviewing this it is found that many many of our maven plugins are very old/out of date and can benefit from being brought up to date including the org.apache:apache version (latest is 18 and released more than a year ago) and maven compiler which we use 3.2 and latest is 3.7.
