    copied!<p>Hallo,</p> <p>I try to run a main method during my maven build process. Hence, I added the exec-maven-plugin and the following snippet to my pom.xml</p> <pre><code>&lt;plugin&gt; &lt;!-- http://www.vineetmanohar.com/2009/11/3-ways-to-run-java-main-from-maven/ --&gt; &lt;groupId&gt;org.codehaus.mojo&lt;/groupId&gt; &lt;artifactId&gt;exec-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt; &lt;version&gt;1.1.1&lt;/version&gt; &lt;executions&gt; &lt;execution&gt; &lt;id&gt;compile-reports&lt;/id&gt; &lt;phase&gt;compile&lt;/phase&gt; &lt;goals&gt; &lt;goal&gt;java&lt;/goal&gt; &lt;/goals&gt; &lt;configuration&gt; &lt;mainClass&gt;at.xyz.dls.util.JasperReportCompiler&lt;/mainClass&gt; &lt;/configuration&gt; &lt;/execution&gt; &lt;/executions&gt; &lt;/plugin&gt; </code></pre> <p>The main class exists and is also executed, when I call it out of the command line:</p> <pre><code>mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="at.xyz.dls.util.JasperReportCompiler" </code></pre> <p>I also tried to create a empty new project to test, if an other depencency in the pom causes the problem, but had no success. In the maven settings.xml in the ~/.m2 folder, there is only the entry for an mirror, but no profiles, or anything else, which could cause a problem.</p> <p>It just does not start it. When I deleted all my artifacts in my repo under org.codehouse, it did not download the exec-maven-plugin. Only when I did the command line call.</p> <p>Any hints? Thanks in advance!</p> <p>edit: I forgot to mention I have used "mvn clean install". so it should have passed the compile phase...</p> <p>edit:</p> <h2>up to now, I could not solve the problem. Thanks for your answers so far! I will try to give all information once again, and hope, one of you guys, find's the fishy part. I have no idea anymore....</h2> <p>What I did: </p> <ul> <li>Delete the folder org/codehouse/mojo in my maven proxy. just to show, when the dependencies are loaded.</li> <li>show some java and maven version information</li> <li>build the project with: mvn -clean install (which should pass the test phase to execute my main method)</li> <li>execute the main method to show, the exec-maven-plugin is loaded only afterwards and works</li> </ul> <p>As far as I understood, calling "mvn clean install" should pass the test phase (the tests are executed...), hence the exec-maven-plugin should be called, which should execute the main method. Am I right?</p> <pre><code>D:\Eclipse-3.6.1-JSF\ws\exec-test&gt;java -version java version "1.6.0_21" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_21-b07) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 17.0-b17, mixed mode, sharing) D:\Eclipse-3.6.1-JSF\ws\exec-test&gt;mvn -version Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-06 21:16:01+0200) Java version: 1.6.0_21 Java home: C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.6.0_21\jre Default locale: de_AT, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows" D:\Eclipse-3.6.1-JSF\ws\exec-test&gt;mvn clean install [INFO] Scanning for projects...
