Hello Aitor:

Using profiles is really the wrong way to do this.  You are better off to realize that you have three separate artifacts that are being generated:
- The “.war” file for ‘pre’
- The “.war” file for ‘local’
- The “.war” file for ‘prod’.

You should treat these as separate artifacts, with a separate artifact-id, otherwise, how do you know that a given artifact was built using the correct profile?  You don’t want to risk installing your ‘pre’ build into production, do you?

That being the case, you should have three separate assembly projects that generate the separate artifacts.

Cheers,
