    Description

      Any site descriptor containing elements in <head> causes the site plugin to fail with

      [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.5:site (default-cli) on project common-parent: SiteToolException: Error parsing site descriptor: TEXT must be immediately followed by END_TAG and not START_TAG (position: START_TAG seen ...<head>\n <anyElement/>... @74:26) -> [Help 1]

      The error happened initially with a <link> element added per the DOAP plugin.

      The error occurs after all "configuring plugin..." log lines, but before any "Generating XYZ report..." lines.

      The relevant portion of site_en.xml is

      <body>
        <head>
            <anyElement/>
            <link rel="meta" title="DOAP" href="${project.url}/doap_${project.artifactId}.rdf" type="application/rdf+xml"/>
        </head>
        <breadcrumbs/>
        <menu name="Modules" ref="modules"/>
        <menu name="Reports" ref="reports" inherit="bottom"/>
    </body>

      This worked in m-site-p:3.4, so is a regression in 3.5.
