[jira] (MASSEMBLY-628) Bogus warning when assembling to a directory

["Karl Heinz Marbaise (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-628?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=342575#comment-342575 ] 

Karl Heinz Marbaise commented on MASSEMBLY-628:
-----------------------------------------------

First the mentioned warning is not bogues it shows you exactly that something is wrong in your build and should be changed, cause you are trying to attach a dir as artifacts to your project which is not possible (If you like to add other files to your project you might use [build-helper-maven-plugin|http://mojo.codehaus.org/build-helper-maven-plugin/]).

The point is if you use 
{code}
<formats>
  <format>dir</format>
  <format>tar.gz</format>
</formats>
{code}
maven-assembly-plugin can't fulfill your requirements which is expressed by the given warning.

If you would have had created a separate execution block for maven-assembly-plugin and a separate assembly-descriptor where you have changed the configuration
{code}
  <configuration>
  ...
    <attach>false</attach>
  </configuration>
...
<formats>
  <format>dir</format>
</formats>
{code}
You won't get a warning and maven-assembly-plugin eased itself, cause you are doing it the right way.
And that's the reason why this issue will be left closed and defined as {{Not A Bug}}.

> When adding a "dir" format to the assembly file, it will output a bogus warning like the following:
> [WARNING] Assembly file: c:\Users\visola\temp\test\target\test-1.0.0 is not a regular file (it may be a directory). It cannot be attached to the project build for installation or deployment.
> I think it is related to bug: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-289
> Attached is an example project that can reproduce the problem just running "mvn clean install"
