Could anybody suggest me an solution with the following exception. I am going to create a multi-module project.
Parent Project name is LOGICBACKEND
child project name is DBAccess
I need to have ear file of LOGICBACKEND
which should contain DBAccess
prjoects jar
file.
I am getting following exception when i run mav clean install -P Developer
.
[ERROR]The project com.project1.Database:DBAccess:1.0-SNAPSHOT (C:\Project1\DBAccess\pom.xml) has 1 error [ERROR]Invalid packaging for parent POM com.project1.logic:LOGIC:1.0-SNAPSHOT (C:\Project1\pom.xml), must be "pom" but is "ear" @ com.project1.logic:LOGIC:1.0-SNAPSHOT, C:\Project1\pom.xml, line 6, column 13
This is how part of my parent pom.xml looks
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.project1.logic</groupId> <artifactId>LOGICBACKEND</artifactId> <packaging>ear</packaging> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
This is how child pom.xml looks
<groupId>com.project1.logic</groupId> <artifactId>DBAccess</artifactId> <packaging>ejb</packaging> <name>DBAccess</name> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <parent> <groupId>com.project1.logic</groupId> <artifactId>DBAccess</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <relativePath>../pom.xml</relativePath> </parent>
Could anybody help me here to understand what is going wrong here.
Thanks in advance for any help

You are trying to give the parent pom two functions - that is serving as a parent pom (packaging pom
) and being the wrapper ear (packaging ear
) - at the same time. To solve your issue you should create another maven module under your parent pom that has packaging ear
and uses the maven-ear-plugin to define the output.
