Are you able to provide a reproducible test case? If not, can you give more 
details on how the projects and dependencies are set up? Snippets from the POMs 
may be helpful.

> Detailed error message on assembly failure
> ------------------------------------------

>                 Key: MASSEMBLY-925
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-925
>             Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.0
>            Reporter: Christian Domsch
>            Assignee: Elliotte Rusty Harold
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: intern

> If the assembly fails during processing of its dependencySets/fileSets, it 
> would be very convenient to get the current set/item it is trying to work on 
> while it fails.
> I just lost about a couple days worth of tracking down, why my assembly 
> failed with the message: "Failed to create assembly: Error creating assembly 
> archive base: archive is not a ZIP archive -> [Help 1]"
> Long story short, in our package feed (we are building our software in Azure) 
> one dependency that we used had a corrupt ZIP archive. Since this assembly is 
> the final one we use to build our installers, it contains 50 dependencySets 
> and some files and filesets. Which means, tracking down which of those was 
> causing the issue while one build roughly takes 40mins, is very time 
> consuming.
> In order to improve this, it would be very helpful, if in the event of an 
> error, the plugin would tell you which module/dependency/file it actually 
> failed on.
