It looks like the other stuff in staging is the stuff I pushed out when we released 2.1.8.1... So the question is, should I remove stuff from the staging repo once the vote finishes? Looking at previous releases (2.1.6) staging is never cleaned out. >> I spot checked one of the archetype directories, and there are no .asc >> signatures: > > No idea with that, I followed the release guide. Maybe that was a > problem related to wrong parent of poms o_O I had the same problem once before. The gpg plugin is a bit of a mystery to me. But, I think Musachy figured out at one point that the section in the release guide that describes the information in the settings.xml is important, and that combined with stuff in the "release" profile makes the stuff get signed. The other thing I remember is that I don't think the release plugin was making the "release" profile active (as it is supposed to). So, I think that when you do either the release:prepare or release:perform, you have to do -Prelease as well. Sorry this isn't clear, but I don't feel like I ever really solved this either. I know when I did 2.1.8.1, I specified -Prelease any time I ran maven :) > >> The signature files should have been created during the release >> process, and they are required.

IIRC, you also have to make sure that your key is in some KEYS file somewhere.

They can (should) become part of the modules section of the struts2 parent pom. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Head Engineer, WanTii, Inc. Need Training? Struts, Spring, Maven, Tomcat...
