Hi,
You need to define a descriptor in your pom in the plugin coonfiguration par
like this :
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<configuration>
<descriptor>src/assemble/bin.xml</descriptor>
<finalName>Catatumbo-1.0-SNAPSHOT</finalName>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
And you must write a assemble descriptor file (bin.xml) in src/assemble/
like this :
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/maven/components/trunk/maven-core/src/assemble/bin.xml?rev=163813&view=markup
