getting artifact:deploy to work

[Amnon Khen <am...@cash-u.com>]

Hi all,
Does anybody have an idea how to get the artifact plugin to work?
I have the following namespace definition on my maven.xml:
xmlns:artifact="artifact"
I have the following goal:
<goal name="test-artifact-plugin">
            <artifact:deploy artifact="${installshield.final.exe}"
type="exe" project="${pom}"/>
</goal>
I configured the properties as instructed in the plugin page on the maven
website.
But nothing works. I get this error message:
BUILD FAILED
File...... file:/m:/buildcps_Pecan-3.50_release/PECAN/PecanSDK/
Element... artifact:deploy
Line...... 213
Column.... 87
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
com.werken.werkz.UnattainableGoalException: Unable to obtain goal
[test-artifact-plugin] -- file:/m:
/buildcps_Pecan-3.50_release/PECAN/PecanSDK/:213:87: <artifact:deploy> null
...followed by a huge stack trace.
It's probably a newbie question... What am I doing wrong?
I see the plugin unpacked in my ${maven.plugin.unpacked.dir}.
Thanks for your help,
            Amnon
