I'm trying to build a Spring-Boot *.war with maven, but I keep getting:
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD SUCCESS [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 0.600 s [INFO] Finished at: 2015-01-28T10:46:11-03:00 [INFO] Final Memory: 6M/123M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [WARNING] The requested profile "pom.xml" could not be activated because it does not exist. After running the mvn: clean.
I have no idea why, I'm following this guide.
My pom.xml
After the success, maven generates a target folder in the project, it's containing only the Manifest.mf, pom.properties and pom.xml.
I'm a beginner using maven/spring and I haven't find any clues about what it might be. Any help would be appreciated.
The complete log:
