Annotated class not found in jar file generated by maven-assembly-plugin - maven

I'm using the maven-assembly-plugin to generate a jar file with a single class inside. When I try to deploy my jar to JBoss server I receive an error: No annotated classes found in the jar:. I've decompiled the class file from the jar and it is annotated. My only guess is for some reason the maven-assembly-plugin is causing an issue. If I generate the jar from a command line and inserting the same .class file the deployment will work.
snippet of the plugin:

How can a jar with specific deps be created, after using maven-dependency-plugin to select the wanted deps?

My goal is to create a jar with specific dependencies from my dependency list in the pom. I'm using maven-dependency-plugin like so:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>copy-dependencies</id>
<goals>
<goal>unpack-dependencies</goal>
</goals>
<phase>prepare-package</phase>
<configuration>
<includeScope>runtime</includeScope>
<excludes>META-INF/*.SF,META-INF/*.DSA,META-INF/*.RSA</excludes>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/uber-deps/</outputDirectory>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<transformers>
<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">
<mainClass>com.some.blaClass</mainClass>
</transformer>
</transformers>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
and an assembly.xml file holding:
<assembly xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/ASSEMBLY/2.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/ASSEMBLY/2.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/assembly-2.0.0.xsd">
<id>plugin</id>
<formats>
<format>jar</format>
</formats>
<includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<useProjectArtifact>true</useProjectArtifact>
<unpack>true</unpack>
<scope>runtime</scope>
<includes>
<include>
${project.build.directory}/uber-deps/
</include>
</includes>
<excludes>
<exclude>*:sources</exclude>
</excludes>
</dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
</assembly>
After mvn clean install all relevant dependencies appear in target/uber-deps as I would expect. My problem is with the next plugin under <plugins> - maven-assembly-plugin. Seems to me as if it doesn't take uber-deps in.
I know this only by trying to unpack the jar using jar xf to see if the deps in uber-deps were packed in the jar created after mvn clean install.
What should be changed?
1)
The jar you are building as part of the assembly-plugin will be called (by default) ./target/<artifactId>-plugin.jar
Note that the plugin part is what you've put under id in your assembly xml file.
2)
Since you already unpack the dependencies to a folder, you should use fileSets rather then dependencySets:
<fileSets>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<includes>
<include>
${project.build.directory}/uber-deps/
</include>
</includes>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</fileSets>
3)
BTW if you want the outputs of your own project in that jar you should add another fileSet:
<fileSet>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<includes>
<include>
${project.build.outputDirectory}
</include>
</includes>
</fileSet>
4) Also just noted that your assembly plugin definition is not stating the location of your assembly xml file and that you try to define mainClass using shade-plugin configuration. This is how it should look in assembly plugin (assuming that your assembly file is located under src/assembly/plugin.xml:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/assembly/plugin.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>com.some.blaClass</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>

do not create meta-inf/maven in jar package when using maven assembly plugin

I have one project that using maven assembly plugin for merging two jar,without using maven assembly ,create jar package have meta-inf/maven that contain pom.properties and pom.xml . but after merge by Assembly this folder not exists.
i search it and found that this can make that OK but dose not work .
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

Maven Create Jar and exclude Files

I am trying to create a runnable Jar file. I have to create a Jar of only one single java class (MyClass which is under the folder structure src/main/java/org/miso/mcs/util/MyClass) and exclude others. I am able to create to JAR but it has everything.
I am using mvn clean package assembly:single command to create Jar.
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>org.miso.mcs.util.MyClass</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
<resources>
<resource>
<classesDirectory>src/main/java/org/miso/mcs/util</classesDirectory>
<includes>
<include>/*MyClass*</include>
</includes>
<excludes>
<exclude>/*</exclude>
</excludes>
</resource>
</resources>
</configuration>
</plugin>
You won't be able to do that by using the predefined jar-with-dependencies descriptor. However, we can make our own assembly descriptor for that:
<assembly xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly/1.1.3"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly/1.1.3 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/assembly-1.1.3.xsd">
<id>jar-with-dependencies</id>
<formats>
<format>jar</format>
</formats>
<includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<useProjectArtifact>false</useProjectArtifact>
<unpack>true</unpack>
</dependencySet>
<dependencySet>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<useProjectArtifact>false</useProjectArtifact>
<useProjectAttachments>true</useProjectAttachments>
<includes>
<include>${project.groupId}:${project.artifactId}:jar:classes:${project.version}</include>
</includes>
<unpack>true</unpack>
<unpackOptions>
<excludes>
<exclude>%regex[org\/miso\/(?!mcs\/util\/MyClass).*]</exclude>
</excludes>
</unpackOptions>
</dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
</assembly>
unpackOptions allows to control the content the unpacked dependencies in the JAR. In this case, we are excluding everything under the org.miso package (which I assume are the classes of your project) and we're only including the class you're interested in (org.miso.mcs.util.MyClass). This will result in a runnable JAR with only the specified class of your project.
Since your project is a WAR, it is a little more complicated. The first dependency set declares all the dependencies of the project and unpacks them. The second only uses the projects attachments and includes only the classes attachment built by the maven-war-plugin.
If you save that snippet into a file called assembly.xml located under src/assembly, your POM will then look like:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
<configuration>
<attachClasses>true</attachClasses>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>make-assembly</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/assembly/assembly.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>org.miso.mcs.util.MyClass</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
With such a configuration, you just need to invoke Maven with mvn clean install and it will correctly generate the JAR. Then, you can launch that JAR with java -jar name-of-jar.jar.

Any help much appreciated!

Assembly ID is getting appended when zip file is created by maven

xml and pom.xml which creates jar file and then zip file with some artifacts including jar file. But when i run maven install zip file is getting created as GenerateMissingUsersReport-bin.zip instead I want it to create as GenerateMissingUsersReport.zip. I have set as false. But no difference.
Any pointers?
Here is dep.xml

Add the following line under configurations element of the pom
<appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
Also make sure you use the latest version of the assembly plugin
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.5</version>
