Description

I had the following plugin configuration for maven-dependency-plugin:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <id>unpack-content</id>
      <phase>generate-sources</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>unpack</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
        <artifactItems>
          <artifactItem>
            <groupId>groupId</groupId>
            <artifactId>artifactId</artifactId>
            <version>${project.version}</version>
            <type>war</type>
            <overWrite>true</overWrite>
            <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/../src/main/webapp</outputDirectory>
            <includes>WEB-INF/*.xml</includes>
          </artifactItem>
        </artifactItems>
      </configuration>
    </execution>
  </executions>
</plugin>

Linux Debug output:

[DEBUG] -- end configuration --
[INFO] Configured Artifact: groupId:artifactId:1.2.3-SNAPSHOT:war
[INFO] Unpacking /home/jenkins/workspace/BUILD/module/webgui.war to /home/jenkins/workspace/BUILD/other-module/target/../src/main/webapp with includes "WEB-INF/*.xml" and excludes ""

Windows Debug output:

[DEBUG] -- end configuration --
[INFO] Configured Artifact: groupId:artifactId:1.2.3-SNAPSHOT:war
[INFO] Unpacking C:\ws\BUILD\module\webgui.war to C:\ws\BUILD\other-module\target\..\src\main\webapp with includes "WEB-INF/*.xml" and excludes ""

[INFO] 

Apart from the configuration which should be done differently, for example using different phase like prepare-package and of course differerent outputDirectory like ${project.build.outputDirectory} it should work which is not the case.

The problem seemed to be related based on the markersDirectory which is used by maven-dependency-plugin which looks like it is not created during the running of maven-dependency-plugin which seemed to be related to the early life cycle phase.
I have changed the binding to a later life cycle phase which means the target/classes folder will be created by previous phases.
