Hi I am sorry for attaching a wrong pom.
I will try to redefine my problem. I have a small project which has a main method in class file CheckResources. I have some more classes which are dependent on external jar. I need to make a executable jar file for this program which contains the dependent jars and main class file. when i execute the executable jar with the help of the following pom.... it runs the main method but fails to load jar files. <build> <directory>target</directory> <outputDirectory>target/classes</outputDirectory> <finalName>testMaven</finalName> <testOutputDirectory>target/test-classes</testOutputDirectory> <resources> <resource> <directory>WSScheduler</directory> <excludes> <exclude>**/*.java</exclude> </excludes> </resource> </resources> <sourceDirectory>WSScheduler</sourceDirectory> <scriptSourceDirectory>WSScheduler</scriptSourceDirectory> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.3.1</version> <configuration> <source>1.5</source> <target>1.5</target> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2</version> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <classpathPrefix>WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/</classpathPrefix> <mainClass>CheckResources</mainClass> </manifest> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-report-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.4.2</version> </plugin> </plugins> </build> <dependencies> <!-- Depending on your requirements you may need more or fewer modules from cxf --> <dependency> <groupId>axis</groupId> <artifactId>axis</artifactId> <version>1.4</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.codehaus.castor</groupId> <artifactId>castor</artifactId> <version>1.2</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>com_lgc_ph_common</groupId> <artifactId>com_lgc_ph_common</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>com_lgc_ph_client</groupId> <artifactId>com_lgc_ph_client</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>commons-discovery</groupId> <artifactId>commons-discovery</artifactId> <version>0.2</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>commons-logging</groupId> <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId> <version>1.1</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>jaxrpc</groupId> <artifactId>jaxrpc</artifactId> <version>1.1</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>log4j</groupId> <artifactId>log4j</artifactId> <version>1.2.15</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>log4j-props</groupId> <artifactId>log4j-props</artifactId> <version>1.1</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>saaj-api</groupId> <artifactId>saaj-api</artifactId> <version>1.3</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>wsdl4j</groupId> <artifactId>wsdl4j</artifactId> <version>1.5.1</version> <type>jar</type> </dependency> </dependencies> On Mon, Mar 7, 2011 at 2:45 PM, Anders Hammar <and...@hammar.net> wrote: > I don't understand what the problem is? > > Also, it looks like your trying to create a war artifact in a jar project. > You should split your project into a multi-module build, where you have on > module creating the jar and one module building the war.
