RPM file not generated using maven rpm plugin

I am trying to create .rpm file of my maven project on my windows machine.

I followed the steps given in the below link to achieve it.

http://tim-perry.co.uk/blog/2012/11/22/building_rpms_on_windows_with_maven

When I run the command mvn package rpm:attached-rpm it shows build success, but no rpm file is generated. Instead, it creates a directory named "rpm" under the target and copies all the needed files (as mentioned in pom) under that directory.

Let me know what am I missing here.

Below is the pom I am using

Make sure you're using latest stable versions, I had issues until I upgraded. The often discussed rpmbuild.bat hack is not required. Instead just use the following environment on Windows 7:

From Cygwin install rpm, rpm-build and rpm-devel all of version 4.12.0-1
Put C:\cygwin64\bin\ on your Windows PATH
In your pom.xml, use rpm-maven-plugin 2.5.1
Under configuration section set <targetOS>linux</targetOS>

And it should just-work from Maven.

It is a known issue that the rpm-maven-plugin does not work with cygwin. There are multiple blog posts describing how some folks have hacked around to get cygwin to work. A simple google search of rpm-maven-plugin cygwin will show these.

Have you verified that you can build the RPM directly via the command line (ie outside of Maven)?

If not, then this whole discussion is moot, so I'm going to assume so.

In which case, just pass that command into the Maven exec plugin:

<project>
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>1.3.2</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <goals>
              <goal>exec</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
        <configuration>
          <executable>rpmbuild</executable>
          <workingDirectory>${basedir}</workingDirectory>
          <arguments>
            <argument>--test</argument>
          </arguments>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

It will perfectly mimic whatever you did on the command line.

Hope that helps.
