Perform fails with 'working directory "...\workspace\target\checkout\workspace"
does not exist!'
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-556
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-556
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: perform
Affects Versions: 2.0
Environment: Windows XP
Reporter: Ed Slocombe
I have maven project that fails when release:perform is called, though
release;prepare works as expected.
I have found two bug reports which may be of relevance:
MRELEASE-261 -> Closed and fixed in version 2.0 but seems similiar
MRELEASE-516 -> Output of perform is identical
The last few lines of output I get:
{code}

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Error executing Maven.
Working directory
"E:\hudson\jobs\myHudsonJob\workspace\target\checkout\workspace" does not exist!
{code}
>From reading the aforementioned bug reports, the possible cause of the error
>may be related to my modules' structure, I've tried to outline it below:
{code}
/workspace
|
|+ pom.xml (root pom whose parent is the build pom,
| calling release:perform on this pom)
| [Modules: moduleA and moduleB]
|
|- moduleA
|+ pom.xml (parent is also build pom)
|+ build/pom.xml (the build pom - no custom parent)
|- moduleB
|+ pom.xml (parent is build pom)
{code}
It seems that the root pom should be in some common directory inside
'workspace' from the error but tried that and doesn't work, nor make sense as
to why I need it.
It then figures that the base directory is *workspace* which then means the
working directory is not found...the working directory it should be using
(having seen where everything is checked out) is
'E:\hudson\jobs\myHudsonJob\workspace\target\checkout\'.
