Matthew McCullough commented on MECLIPSE-608:
---------------------------------------------
Typically, the cause of this is because a POM author put a replaceable like
${basedir} in the target or directory tags. This is not allowed. Target and
Directory tags are relative to the POM, and are not supposed to have drive
letters and paths to roots of the filesystem.
http://maven.apache.org/ref/2.2.1/maven-model/maven.html#class_resource
If you remove the ${basedir} type references from the paths, the plugin works
just fine.
