I have a main project pom.xml which has one module not bound to any profile (module A) and one module bound to profile rest (module module.REST). In jenkins profile, there is a build configuration with a cobertura and sonar plugin.
When Jenkins executes the sonar build, the maven runner only analyses modules which are not bound to profiles and the project module itself. Is there any other way to tell sonar to analyze all modules without specifying those modules again in the profile where the plugin itself is located (in my case this is jenkins profile)? I think cobertura plugin does perform code coverage on ALL modules.

I have a maven multi-module setup, which includes the fabric8 plugin in a profile defined in a child module to build a Docker image if the profile is active, see below

Runing a normal build, i.e. mvn clean install -PDocker completes successfully, but if I call one of the docker goals from the parent module directly, e.g. mvn -PDocker docker:help it fails with this error
No plugin found for prefix 'docker' in the current project and in the plugin groups
Running the same command from the docker directory completes successfully.
What changes are needed so the command completes successfully in the root directory?
I have problem to deploy my multi-module python project with following structure
parent pom.xml # common pom for others project
project/
pom.xml # project pom
common_features/
sub-project-1/pom.xml # sub project 1 pom
sub-project-2/pom.xml # sub project 2 pom
For deployment I use maven
Settings.xml
General maven setting use for build

Now I am not sure what is wrong and I spend a lot of hours of investigation this issue but nothing found. Please do you have some suggestions what is wrong here? Thanks a lot
I found where is the problem. Within parent pom.xml there was the following plugin which change artifactId. I do not know why I got error 409 but finally this was a reason:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.groovy.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>gmaven-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>pre-clean</phase>
<goals>
<goal>execute</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<source>
project.getModel().setArtifactId(project.properties["someProperty"].replaceAll('_',
'-'))
project.getArtifact().setArtifactId(project.properties["someProperty"].replaceAll('_',
'-'))
</source>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>

I have case where i want to download the jar and unpack the jar.
Within that jar i need to invoke the pom.xml from particular location ,
For eg: I downloaded jar and unpacked at
/home/sohanb/admin/target/com/tooling/admin/dockerfiles/cfg
Now at,
/home/sohanb/admin/target/com/tooling/admin/dockerfiles/cfg there is pom.xml which i need to call to build my docker image.
To do this i thought of doing something like this as below,
I have profiles where i want to invoke it sequentially.
unpack-jar
build-tools
Some how my modules profile is always getting called. I am not sure why this is happening or it is default nature of maven to invoke modules profile first.
Here is sample pom

when i execute above command, it always calls the modules profiles giving error,
[ERROR] Child module .... does not exist #
Please suggest.
I have a parent project with 3 child projects:
parent
project-1
/src/main/resources/config.xml
project-2
/src/main/resources/config.xml
project-3
/src/main/resources/config.xml
The configuration config.xml is used during the generate-sources phase. For the three projects, the config.xml is exactly the same. However, the usage of this config.xml is different for each project.
In project-X, I am referring to config.xml as following:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>some-group</groupId>
<artifactId>some-artifact</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>some-goal</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<input>src/main/resources/config.xml</input>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
What is the best way to share this common config.xml between all 3 projects?
You can use the build-helper-maven-plugin here.

Now, let's build the project:
D:\workspaces> cd shared-resources-project
D:\workspaces\java\shared-resources-project> mvn clean install
Some notes:
The build-helper-maven-plugin will add the common config.xml file as a resource to Project-X.
Then the Maven resources plugin (MRP) will copy config.xml to the project output directory (target directory by default). During the copy, MRP will also replace ${custom-value} with the specific value provided by Project-X.
The final config.xml will be available to another plugin as long as the other plugin is bound to the generate-source phase AND its declaration appears AFTER the build-helper-maven-plugin declaration. Maven (3.0.4+ at least) calls the plugins in their order of apparition in the pom.xml.
When I build a multi module maven project(using mvn clean compile) where one dependency(part of the build reactor) is copied into another using dependency:copy, then maven complains with the below error.
Artifact has not been packaged yet. When used on reactor artifact, copy should be executed after packaging: see MDEP-187 is thrown
This is perfectly fine, Maven can't copy the dependent jar because it has not been packaged yet and the dependency has to be resolved from the local project and not from the repository.
Lets say project A is being copied into project B using the dependency:copy goal.
Now if I import the projects into eclipse,with the lifecycle mapping set in such a way that the maven-jar-plugin is executed on project A(which means that A is packaged), still project B complains with the same error. How can I get rid of this.I can't ignore dependency:copy in the m2e lifecycle as it's a crucial phase in the build.

I need a ProjectB's jar to contain ProjectA's jar in the jars directory(This is required by a custom class-loader part of a home-grown framework)
With m2eclipse, the artifactItems or dependencies will be resolved to the outputDirectory of the corresponding workspace project if the Resolve dependencies from workspace Projects setting is turned on. This is the root cause for the error in my question.
I ended up forking the existing m2e configurator for this plugin so that it can fetch these dependencies/artifactItems from the respository instead of picking it from the workspace project's outputDirectories .
Though this works with few tests which I had done, it is pretty much a work in progress and in case someone wants to help or contribute, the GitHub URL is
