I understand this. You also said the monitor project "uses" the database connectivity module. Do you know if the monitor project would fail if you got rid of the axis2 addressing mar file? Or would it work with no issues? > My understanding may be faulty but I thought that the assembly.xml file is a > kind of > 'parent configuration' to the m-assembly-p plugin because of the > <id>jar-with-dependencies</id> tag in it. EITHER you use a default, built-in descriptor (like jar-with-dependencies) when you are using the assembly plugin and then don't specify your own assembly.xml file **or** you build your own custom assembly.xml and tell the assembly plugin about it. Pick one. And if you want to do something custom, please don't use "jar-with-dependencies" as the id as that already has a definition in Maven. Use "alans-custom-id" or anything else. > Trying to exclude the .mar file inside the m-assembly-p of the pom.xml didn't > seem to work. > So I'm trying to exclude it inside of the assembly.xml but that isn't working > either.

There should be no need to make your own assembly.xml if you simply want to exclude a dependency from being packaged along with the rest of it. You could simply <exclude> it in one of several places in the pom.xml file.
