maven deploy: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact

I'm trying to deploy a maven project to a remote repository.

mvn install works just fine for local repository.

I'm using Groovy and the Groovy-Eclipse compiler plugin. I tried to run mvn deploy to deploy to a remote repository and I got the following error:

The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact -> [Help 1]

This is my pom.xml:

<project>
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>io.github.notacariocafacil</groupId>
    <artifactId>notacariocafacil</artifactId>

             </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

Do I need to add something in the build step?

for the new Maven 3.8.x, try removing the "package" from the command.

CAREFUL. This apparently can also happen if you have your projects being built by maven, in a folder that has a bad naming convention. I just realized this after troubleshooting this error for 3 days, that my folder was named {migration repos} it literally created a jacked up file called "migration" and broke the maven install.

You need to run mvn deploy instead of mvn deploy:deploy. The former executes the maven lifecycle up to the "deploy" phase, i.e. it compiles your code, packages it into a JAR file and finally deploys it to your remote repository.

mvn deploy:deploy on the other hand does only execute the deploy goal of the maven-deploy-plugin. Without the context of the previously executed lifecycle phases, which produce your actual build artifact (the JAR file), the maven-deploy-plugin does not have anything to deploy and aborts with the error The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact. This behavior is also explained in the FAQ of the maven-deploy-plugin.
