Summary: Cannot handle relocated artifacts Key: MASSEMBLY-830 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-830 Project: Maven Assembly Plugin Issue Type: Bug Components: dependencySet Affects Versions: 2.6 Environment: $ mvn --version Apache Maven 3.3.9 (bb52d8502b132ec0a5a3f4c09453c07478323dc5; 2015-11-10T16:41:47+00:00) Maven home: C:\java\apache\maven-3.3.9 Java version: 1.8.0_92, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: C:\java\jdk1.8.0_92\jre Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "amd64", family: "dos" Reporter: Martin Todorov Priority: Blocker When one of the transitive dependencies is relocated, the {{maven-assembly-plugin}} doesn't follow the relocation and check the POM of the relocated artifact, but uses the actual POM artifact that declares the relocation. Since this POM doesn't define a version for the artifact, the build fails with: {code} [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.6:single (make-assembly) on project blah: Execution make-assembly of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.6:single failed: For artifact {com.foo:bar:null:jar}: The version cannot be empty. -> [Help 1] {code} As this is a transitive dependency of a third-party library, we have no control over it and have attempted to define: * An {{<exclusion/>}} for this artifact in the dependency which requires it. * A direct dependency (as the very first {{<dependency/>}}) to the relocated artifact (which has a version defined in the {{pom.xml}}). Unfortunately, neither of these helped. This is the POM with the relocation: {code} <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xsi:schemaLocation=" http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd " xmlns=" http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 " xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.foo</groupId> <artifactId>bar</artifactId> <distributionManagement> <relocation> <classifier>b</classifier> <version>1.5</version> </relocation> </distributionManagement> </project> {code} Please, advise!
