Description

We got a multiproject with cross dependencies to release. The structure is like this:

AvE24All

+- Applications

+- AvE24

- AvE24Backoffice

+- Frameworks

- AvE24Data

+- Static

- www.ave24.de

- WebServices

- AvE24WS

Each subproject contains a correlative pom.xml which declare the cross dependencies:

The AvE24 and AvE24Backoffice subprojects both depend on AvE24Data and AvE24WS subprojects

(see also AvE24All.zip attachment, which contains the bare bone (just pom.xml files) multiproject )

While all the "easy" targets (clean, install, deploy) work for me release:prepare fails because the freshly build cross dependencies are only inside the target folder and not yet in some repository:

As you can see subproject AvE24WS builds just fine and then gets stored to /Users/lars/Documents/workspace/AvE24All/WebServices/AvE24WS/target/AvE24WS-1.2.8.jar but there it won't be found later (because it's not in any repository yet).

As a workaround we currently issue a 'mvn install' after 'mvn --batch-mode release:prepare' failed and then run the 'mvn --batch-mode release:prepare' again which ten won't fail (because the cross dependency is in our Maven Repository by then). 'mvn --batch-mode release:perform' works like expected later on.

For a full log of our release see the attached release.out.txt
