Thanks for answer, but unfortunately it didn't work.
Removing outputDirectory from assembly plugin's configuration just changed
the location of created zip file, did not install it.
Appending execution gave the following error:
D:\projects\MyProject\>mvn package
......
[INFO] [site:attach-descriptor]
[INFO] [assembly:attached {execution: make-assembly}]
[INFO] Reading assembly descriptor ......./dep.xml
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] Failed to create assembly: Artifact:
com.mycompany.myapp:Common:jar:3.2.1 (included by module) does not have an
artifact with a file. Please ensure the package phase is run before the
assembly is generated.
Please note that my original command was:
mvn clean install package assembly:assembly
i.e, I was explicitly calling assembly after package. I am not sure why this
approach was fit for me, probably was because of inter dependencies of sub
modules.
