Maven - No plugin found for prefix 'wildfly' in the current project

Question

Am using Wildfly 8 and I need to use the java batch processor from JSR 352. I downloaded the examples from https://github.com/javaee-samples/javaee7-samples but can't get them to work.

On the batch folder I did mvn clean package wildfly:deploy but am getting the error

No plugin found for prefix 'wildfly' in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repositories [local (/home/krishnen/.m2/repository), codehaus-snapshots (http://nexus.codehaus.org/snapshots/), central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)]

Any ideas what may be wrong?

Solution 1

You simply can add the following in your settings.xml file:

<pluginGroups>
  <pluginGroup>org.wildfly.plugins</pluginGroup>
</pluginGroups>

After that you can use it like this:

mvn wildfly:deploy

Solution 2

<project>
    ...
    <build>
        ...
        <plugins>
            ...
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>1.1.0.Alpha8</version>
            </plugin>
            ...
        </plugins>
        ...
    </build>
...
</project>

Use this updated plugin. I also had the same problem as since i added the wildfly dependency to my pom.xml rather than the plugin

Solution 3

You need add this plugin to your pom.xml.

<build>
   <plugins>
      <plugin>
            <groupId>org.wildfly.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>wildfly-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.2.Final</version>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

And than call mvn wildfly:deploy, this should do the job :-)

Seems to have solved the issue but I get another error - Error executing FORCE_DEPLOY: /home/krishnen/Dropbox/javaee7-samples/batch/target/batch-sa‌​mples.maven-project (No such file or directory) Any ideas? U can reproduce it if you get the example on github. Thanks!
