Issue with java eclipse maven (and ant) on copying jar file through ssh

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11133444

Question

I have the following:

  • running eclipse-indigo in CentOS 6.2,
  • I also installed apache-ant-1.8.4 in my system and set ANT_HOME variable to it in eclipse.
  • In eclipse I have installed the maven2 plug-in, that uses maven-3.0.4 version, that is installed on my system (I configured eclipse to use it).

I have a maven project on my eclipse and I want every time when I install - (the maven goal) - it, the resulted jar file to be copied in a specific location on my server - through ssh. For this I did the following on my pom.xml:



   <build>
    <plugins >
            <plugin>
        <groupId > org.apache.maven.plugins </groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <phase>install</phase>
                    <configuration>
                        <tasks name="ssh_task">
                            <taskdef name="scp" 
                                      classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.ssh.Scp" classpathref="/usr/local/apache-ant/apache-ant-1.8.4/lib/ant-jsch.jar" />
                            <scp file="/absolute/path/to/myfile.jar" 
                                 todir="root@$10.3.1.1:/remote/location" 
                                 password="mypass" 
                                 trusted="true"/>
                        </tasks>
                    </configuration>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>run</goal>
                    </goals>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

I configured my pom.xml in that way following this posts:

Now the problem is that when I run install goal with eclipse I get the following error:

ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-antrun-plugin:1.3:run (default) on project myprojectname: An Ant BuildException has occured: Reference /usr/local/apache-ant/apache-ant-1.8.4/lib/ant-jsch.jar not found. -> [Help 1]

The problem is that the ant-jsch.jar is there.

Question: Do you have any suggestions on how to deal with my issue? If you want to know the full stack trace just tell me.

Solution

classpathref is used to define a reference to a previously defined property.

You should try to define your classpath variable:

<path id="jsch-classpath">
        <fileset dir="/usr/local/apache-ant/apache-ant-1.8.4/lib/" includes="ant-jsch.jar"/>
</path>

and then use it in the task:

<taskdef name="scp" classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.ssh.Scp" classpathref="jsch-classpath" />

OTHER TIPS

The install phase of Maven is intended to install artifacts into the local repository and not intended to transfer files to a remote server. If you are trying to deploy and artifact into a Tomcat/JBoss whatever it's better to take a look at the cargo2-maven-plugin or the tomcat-maven-plugin which are intended to deploy artifact to servers.

Furhtermore i would recommend the maven-wagon-plugin to upload an artifact to a server instead of using Ant in this case which would make life easier.
