Hi,
the problem is that the files to exclude are not in sr/main/resources but in
src/main/webapp/WEB-INF.
The resource excludes from the build phase do not seem to have any effect
there.
The idea was indeed to have a profile to create a war file that could be
used on our JBoss server instead of the local jetty.
I guess we 'll need to remove it manually from the war file.
I don't see other options.
Kind Regards,
