I've switched to Maven 3.0.2in an attempt to get a working release plugin but now the assembly plugin is not working.
I can 'clean install' my multi-module project fine with 2.2.1. When switching to 3.0.2 Maven has a problem with the assembly with the following error printed to the console: [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.2-beta-5:single (ferris-bin-assembly) on project ferris-bible-common: Execution ferris-bin-assembly of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.2-beta-5:single failed: Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.2-beta-5 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: Could not find artifact org.ferris:ferris-assemblies:jar:0.0.3 in central (http://re po1.maven.org/maven2) -> [Help 1] I highlighted what looks like the root cause of the problem. My pom is trying to use an assembly I created - org.ferris:ferris-assemblies:jar:0.0.3 - however for some reason Maven 3.0.2 is trying to find it in the main Maven Repo. This already exists in my LOCAL repository and if it didn't it exists on my OSS SONATYPE repository which my settings.xml is configured to point to. Any one know of any reason why the assembly plugin has decided to only look for my assembly artifact on the main Maven Repo?
