How can I make a profile to explode my war to the jboss deploy directory?
[I can't use the jetty plugin in this case. Though I love it so.] So far I do a full build and have a batch file copy the war to the jboss deploy dir. I don't want this to affect anyone else, so I made a profiles.xml file (below). But whenever I run "mvn compile war:exploded -P dev-jboss" I get a stacktrace (further below). It chokes on the <build> tag, but according to the POM docs, it seems like it should be OK. What am I doing wrong?
