Sean Gay commented on MPMD-61:
------------------------------

After reading this issue I implemented a work-around that seems to solve my problems for multi-module builds. Simply place the following line in your configuration for the PMD plugin.

{code}
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/site</outputDirectory>
{code}

> I setup a multi-module build and included the pmd check goal to run during the verify phase.  When I execute a build from the top level directory specifying -f <path>/pom.xml, the plugin creates a target/site/... directory in the current working directory.  This directory should be in the project directory and now fails to clean.
> I have attached a sample project.  To reproduce :
> cd pmd-multi-module
> mvn -f ./root/pom.xml install
> Note that after the build there is a target directory in the current working directory with the pmd.html and other files within it.
