activeProfile in ~/.m2/settings.xml is ignored when profiles section is missing or empty ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2234 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2234 Project: Maven 2 Type: Bug Versions: 2.0.4 Reporter: Manfred Geiler When i have this settings.xml file in my user home dir, the activeProfile setting is simply ignored by Maven: <settings> <activeProfiles> <activeProfile>env-test</activeProfile> </activeProfiles> </settings> Adding an empty profiles section does not help: <settings> <profiles> </profiles> <activeProfiles> <activeProfile>env-test</activeProfile> </activeProfiles> </settings> Well, adding a dummy profile makes it work: <settings> <profiles> <profile> <id>dummy</id> </profile> </profiles> <activeProfiles> <activeProfile>env-test</activeProfile> </activeProfiles> </settings> Funny, isn't it?
