Strange 4K problem with exported POM

[Bas ter Brugge <ba...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I have a problem deploying an artifact to our remote repository using Maven
2.0.4. I've configured a repository in the pom.xml of my project like below:

            <distributionManagement>
              <!-- use the following if you're not using a snapshot version.
-->
                  <repository>
                    <id>myrepo</id>
                    <name>myrepo</name>
                    <url>file://<path-to-remote-repository-on-server></url>
                  </repository>
            </distributionManagement>

When I run a mvn deploy, the build is deployed in the remote repository. All
files are present (the jar, the exported pom and the secure hashes and md5
files). The problem is that the exported POM is no valid XML. It is exactly
4096 bytes and the last characters are:

  <distributionManagement>
    <status>deployed</st

After the "</st" the file ends. Any idea what might be going on here?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
