Executed command: mvn clean site-deploy -P company
Reproducible with: maven-site-plugin 2.3 but not with 2.2.

When specifying the distributionManagement section outside of a profile everything works fine.

The site of the parent module is deployed to https://projects.company.com/application/filestore/site/siteFixing/index.html but the link to the sub-module points to https://projects.company.com/module/index.html even though the sub-module has been deployed to https://projects.company.com/application/filestore/site/siteFixing/module/index.html .
