I am using above code configuration for my project . But when I build my project by eclipse it deploy project as : example-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT . I did not understand why -0.0.1-SNAPSHOT append after my project name ? I update my build .But I still getting same error.

Answer 1

This is the default name defined by finalName property. If you don't define this property, the defaut value is :

<build>
    <directory>${project.basedir}/target</directory>
    <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory>
    <finalName>${project.artifactId}-${project.version}</finalName>

Documentation : https://maven.apache.org/pom.html

EDIT

Also, you should not use <pluginManagement> in this simple case. So, in this case, you should organize your pom.xml as follow :

<project>
  <build>
    <finalName>...</finalName>
    <plugins>...</plugins>
  </build>
</project>
