RE: [Maven Users] Deploy .war to shared hosting 'remote server'
I agree that the use of the term 'deploy' seems to have caused my confusion.
I was unable to get wagon-maven-plugin to work at all seems to be a problem
with m2eclipse integration here in picking up the settings.xml file.
However Steffan has come up with a solution using maven-antrun-plugin example
given below.

Subject: Fwd: [Maven Users] Deploy .war to shared hosting 'remote server'
Hi John,
I just wanted to forward you this thread from Maven Users. It seems
like you might want to add a disclaimer in Java Power Tools around
section 2.14 that makes it clear to readers that Maven's use of the
term deploy is very different from what they generally expect it to
mean.
Here's the full thread:
http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/Deploy-war-to-shared-hosting-remote-server-td3338859.html
Nigel, if you find a nice solution to this deployment issue using the
wagon plugin as suggested by Wendy, please do post back to the Maven
Users list and maybe also to me and John privately -- who knows, maybe
John will include it in a future edition of his book and include you
in the acknowledgements. ;-)

Thanks for your time much appreciated.
I am looking a Cargo but in the simple case I have the 'shared hosting'
remote server does not give me access to 'tomcat/manager' so I think this
will not work either but I have only just started looking.

Maybe I had misunderstood - the maven-deploy-plugin information I had read.
For example - chapter 2.14 in the book Java Power Tools.
I found that book on Amazon and was able to dig inside it a little bit
to look at chapter 2.14.
You simply don't know/understand that the use of the word deploy in
Maven is different from what you generally understand it to mean, and
the author doesn't appear to take the time to explain it in that
section either, or if he did, I missed it. Deploy in Maven means
upload an artifact to a remote Maven repo using the Maven repo
structure/layout so others using Maven can find and use it. That is
exactly what the maven-deploy-plugin is doing for you. You can think
of deploy in Maven to mean essentially mvn install to a remote
server.
The next section in the book 2.15 talks about deploying your app to
various app servers using Cargo. This is the kind of deployment you
are looking for.

wagon-maven-plugin approach works with m2eclipse 0.12.0

Deploy .war to shared hosting 'remote server'
I am new to web development so I hope there is enough information here. I have a website developed under eclipse using m2eclipse/maven. This project works fine under a local Tomcat server. I now want to deploy the .war file to a shared hosting 'remote server'. The rules of this server are to place the .war in a particular directory and that is it. So I set up the following after some reading. plugin groupIdorg.apache.maven.plugins/groupId artifactIdmaven-deploy-plugin/artifactId version2.5/version /plugin extensions !-- Enabling the use of FTP -- extension groupIdorg.apache.maven.wagon/groupId artifactIdwagon-ftp/artifactId version1.0-beta-6/version /extension /extensions distributionManagement repository idnigelproject/id urlftp://ftp.nigelproject.com/repository /url /repository /distributionManagement This creates a repository structure on the 'remote server' and if I go to the server and copy manually the war file to the public_html directory all works fine. So my questions: Can I just copy the war file from my local repository to the 'remote server' using ftp - without creating a repository structure on the 'remote server' ? (If so how is this done in Maven ?) If not can I automatically copy from the create repository to the correct place on the 'remote server' with Maven ? (Again how would this be done ?) Thanks for any help.
