liberty 8.5.5.2 + eclipse + maven : deploy issue

Question

According to guide -https://github.com/WASdev/ci.maven#deploy, I made pom.xml like below

             <plugin>
                <groupId>net.wasdev.wlp.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>liberty-maven-plugin</artifactId> 
                <version>1.0</version>
               <configuration>
                    <serverHome>D:\eclipses\eGovFrameDev-2.7.0-64bit_Liberty\wlp</serverHome>
                    <serverName>defaultServer</serverName>
                </configuration>
                <executions>
                        <execution>
                        <id>deploy-app</id>
                        <phase>post-integration-test</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>deploy</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <appArchive>D:\eclipses\eGovFrameDev-2.7.0-64bit_Liberty\workspace\Test\target\Test-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.war</appArchive>                  
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>

When I ran 'mvn -X liberty:deploy' I got exception like below

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal net.wasdev.wlp.maven.plugins:liberty-maven-plugin:1.0:deploy (default-cli) on project Test: CWWKM2155E: There is no application to be deployed as specified by the appArchive attribute -> [Help 1] org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal net.wasdev.wlp.maven.plugins:liberty-maven-plugin:1.0:deploy (default-cli) on project Test: CWWKM2155E: There is no application to be deployed as specified by the appArchive attribute at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:217) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:153) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:145) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject(LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:84) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject(LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:59) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleStarter.singleThreadedBuild(LifecycleStarter.java:183) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleStarter.execute(LifecycleStarter.java:161) at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute(DefaultMaven.java:320) at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.execute(DefaultMaven.java:156) at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.execute(MavenCli.java:537) at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.doMain(MavenCli.java:196) at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.main(MavenCli.java:141) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:94) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:55) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:619) at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launchEnhanced(Launcher.java:290) at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launch(Launcher.java:230) at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.mainWithExitCode(Launcher.java:409) at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:352) Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException: CWWKM2155E: CWWKM2155E: There is no application to be deployed as specified by the appArchive attribute at org.codehaus.mojo.pluginsupport.MojoSupport.execute(MojoSupport.java:129) at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultBuildPluginManager.java:101) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:209) ... 19 more Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException: CWWKM2155E: CWWKM2155E: There is no application to be deployed as specified by the appArchive attribute at net.wasdev.wlp.maven.plugins.applications.DeployAppMojo.doExecute(DeployAppMojo.java:76) at org.codehaus.mojo.pluginsupport.MojoSupport.execute(MojoSupport.java:122)

Using Maven command line you can execute a goal (as you are doing in this case) or a lifecycle phase (for example install). In the pom.xml snippet you attached you have a plugin-level configuration (with serverHome and serverName) and execution-level configuration (with appArchive). The issue is when executing a specific goal of a plugin from the command line only the plugin-level configuration is used. That's why the plug-in does not see the appArchive configuration. However, if you were the execute a Maven phase such as install, the execution-level configuration would be used (at the right time) and the application would be deployed.

If you want the deploy goal to work from the command line just move the appArchive configuration to the plugin-level configuration. Also, the following might be helpful: http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-default-execution-ids.html
