Hi Francesco,
glad you understand the problem ;)
I'm using core as an artifact. I tried putting this into the core
pom.xml but the libs are still there. I guess this is because of the
war-overlay.
I added this to the core pom.xml and it seems to remove the libs:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<overlays>
<overlay>
<groupId>org.apache.syncope</groupId>
<artifactId>syncope-core</artifactId>
<excludes>
<exclude>WEB-INF/lib/geronimo-javamail_1.4_provider-*.jar</exclude>
<exclude>WEB-INF/lib/geronimo-javamail_1.4_spec-*.jar</exclude>
</excludes>
</overlay>
</overlays>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
best regards
Bob
regards
Bob
