Maven maven-deploy-plugin always upload twice

mavenmaven-deploy-plugin

I've a problem when publishing component to a Nexus repository, Maven upload the file twice:

  • first time with maven-deploy-plugin groupId/artifactId/version parameters (that's what I want)
  • second time with pom groupId/artifactId/version parameters (that's what I DON'T want)

I launch packaging/deployment with the following command (see pom.xml file at the bottom):

mvn clean package deploy:deploy-file -e -f pom.xml

Here is the snippet of maven output console when handling deploy phase (the 6 first lines are correct but notice the 2 last lines with pom groupId/artifactId/version):

Any idee to solve it ?

Thanks for your help.

[EDIT]

With the command line mvn deploy:deploy-file -e -f pom.xml, it works well (whitout clean package), but I need to package before deploy…

The maven-deploy-plugin uploads the file you specify then uploads the all project attached artifacts. The maven-assembly-plugin by default attaches the output file to the project attached artifacts. This makes the upload happen twice for you.

The fix is to this to your maven-assembly-plugin configuration.
