Maven: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact

Question

I\'m using Maven 3.0.3 on Mac 10.6.6. I have a JAR project and when I run the command \"mvn clean install:install\", I\'m getting the error,

[ERROR] Failed

I have same issue. Error message for me is not complete. But in my case, I've added generation jar with sources. By placing this code in pom.xml:

 
    
        
            
                maven-source-plugin
                2.1.2
                
                    
                        deploy
                        
                            jar
                        
                    
                
            
        
    

So in deploy phase I execute source:jar goal which produces jar with sources. And deploy ends with BUILD SUCCESS
