Hi Rahul, it was so obvious that I did not understand the cause immediately
1) in my commons-exec pom I additionally defined the maven-changelog-plugin in the reporting section 2) I run "mvn -Prc release:prepare" So what happens +) the release plugin changes the SCM settings BEFORE creating the tag which is smart if the release fall apart later on +) the maven-changelog-plugin picks up the new SCM section but is unable to find the corresponding tag in SVN +) consequently the report generation fails Cheers, Siegfried Goeschl Rahul Akolkar wrote: > On Sat, Dec 13, 2008 at 5:58 PM, <sgoes...@apache.org> wrote: > >> Author: sgoeschl >> Date: Sat Dec 13 14:58:27 2008 >> New Revision: 726285 >> >> URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=726285&view=rev >> Log: >> The release plugin simply fails >> >> +) it seems that the new tag is not created immediately >> +) during the release the changelog is generated which fails to access to >> EXEC_1_0_0_RC1 since it does not exist at the moment >> >> As far as I understand the problems it can't work so I falling back to cut >> the rc manually >> >> > <snip/> > > Trying to understand what went wrong -- the tag won't be created in > dry runs but should be otherwise. Can you share any more on why 'mvn > -Prc release:prepare' couldn't create the tag for you? > > -Rahul > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
