> I suddenly started getting the following error from maven-assembly-plugin (2.2) when building the assembly for an existing project. A colleague on Windows did not experience the issue:
> [INFO] Failed to create assembly: Error creating assembly archive XYZ: Problem creating TAR: request to write '145' bytes exceeds size in header of '144' bytes.
> Google suggested tarLongFileMode as a starting-point for troubleshooting, and changing this to "omit" made the build start working again. Loads of files were being excluded, however, including files predating the build-failure. Gradually eliminating newer files eventually revealed the culprit; a file with a long filename/path containing more than one non US-ASCII character. 
> So to summarize, the requirement seems to be:
> 1. files with name+path long enough to require tarLongFileMode=gnu (probably - I haven't tested the threshold extensively but shorter files seems to work fine no matter how many specials chars they contain)
> 2. Platform encoding is UTF-8, hence why it wasn't seen on my colleague's machine as it was using Windows' equivalent of iso-8859-1
> 3. The filename must contain _more_ than one character resulting in an UTF-8 multibyte sequence, for instance the characters æ, ø or å.
> The simple workaround for now is to simply rename any offending files.
> I've attached an example project that reproduces the issue on my machine. It has a simple pom, an assembly-descriptor, and some empty textfiles under resources; one of which triggers this bug. 
> Running it with "mvn clean install -e" produces the following output:
