Ah, ok, sorry for the lack of information, I thought it was a kind of dumb question (meaning done by a beginner) :). Thanks a lot for your help and effort, here some links:
The pom: https://github.com/stefanofornari/beanshellweb/blob/master/webapp/pom.xml The assembly file: https://github.com/stefanofornari/beanshellweb/blob/master/webapp/src/main/assembly/bin.xml Then, after packaging, here is the content of the dir: [ste beanshellweb-webapp-1.1-SNAPSHOT] =)o ls -la total 44 drwxrwxr-x 9 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:07 . drwxrwxr-x 10 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:07 .. drwxrwxr-x 2 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:07 bin drwxrwxr-x 5 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:06 bootstrap drwxrwxr-x 4 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:06 console -rw-rw-r-- 1 ste ste 485 Jan 28 13:04 favicon.png -rw-rw-r-- 1 ste ste 1649 Jan 28 13:04 index.html drwxrwxr-x 2 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:07 lib drwxrwxr-x 2 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:06 META-INF drwxrwxr-x 6 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:07 webapps drwxrwxr-x 5 ste ste 4096 Jan 28 13:06 WEB-INF Interestingly, I now checked the tgz and the content instead is fine, therefore the problem seems to be only for the dir distribution.
