Dan Rollo commented on MSITE-600: --------------------------------- I tested this issue using maven-site-plugin:3.1-SNAPSHOT, and a parent pom (that happens to NOT be located above the child pom [like a shared corporate pom] - in case it matters). The behavior of the site plugin snapshot is "better", in that I can work around the issue and get something to deploy, but I'm seeing the problems below: Invalid paths being created/attempted, like: C:\...\someDir\${project.basedir}\target\ or ${project.basedir}\someDir\ (where the un-interpolated '${project.basedir}' actually shows in the path. Also (not sure if it is related), I'm seeing a bogus empty directory getting created by the site-deploy goal. This bogus dir is always empty, but it is outside (above) the 'target' dir, so I'm pretty sure that is not intended: ${project.basedir}\target\... (the 2 or 3 deep empty directory tree is created in the current directory from which 'mvn' was executed). Also, I noticed these bogus directories may be created in different levels (above 'target' dir) depending on whether you run: mvn site-deploy mvn site site:stage site-deploy mvn site && mvn site:stage && mvn site-deploy Should I open new bugs? Any other info I can share? > site plugin 3.0 does not permit a child to fully override parent site > deployment URL > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MSITE-600 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-600 > Project: Maven 2.x and 3.x Site Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: site:deploy > Affects Versions: 2.3, 3.0 > Reporter: Benson Margulies > Assignee: Lukas Theussl > Fix For: 2.4, 3.1 > > Attachments: child-pom.xml, muddle.tar, parent-pom.xml > > > The test cases here has a parent with a a distributionManagement/site/url, > and then a child which overrides it with an absolute URL.
