Description

Building with the latest Maven fails during the highest-dir goal:

 

{{Cannot find a single highest directory for this project set. First two candidates directories don't share a common root. }}

 

As suggested on this SO answer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3084629/finding-the-root-directory-of-a-multi-module-maven-reactor-project, the directory-of goal works better
