Errors in maven pom defined by IntelliJ IDEA

Question

This question was posted before but with very little information and no solution. I'm getting an error in my pom file: "Cannot resolve symbol 'runfx.args'" My project is a maven project based on the javafx archetype. The pom was automatically generated by intelliJ and I only added the JDA dependency and bintray repository (for the JDA dependency) that are the bottom of the pom. If it is relevant, I can run the program trough IntelliJ without using maven. maven install and maven compile work without errors but maven deploy throws the following error:

Thanks

Edit: I tried changing the maven-dependency-plugin version to 3.1.1 and it failed maven install, I changed back to 2.6 and it still fails install. Gives the same error as the one above. I tried cleaning then compiling but it still doesn't work.

Answer 1

I used your pom and the problem is that the plugin tries to unpack a pom.

Unpacking d:\\Profiles\\aclaudel.m2\\repository\\club\\minnced\\opus-java\\1.0.4\\opus-java-1.0.4.pom to D:\\tmp\\target\\classes with includes "" and excludes ""

[ERROR] [...] Unknown archiver type: No such archiver: 'pom'.

A workaround is to exclude the artifact in the plugin configuration :

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.6</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <id>unpack-dependencies</id>
                    <phase>package</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>unpack-dependencies</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <excludeArtifactIds>opus-java</excludeArtifactIds>
                        <excludeScope>system</excludeScope>
                        <excludeGroupIds>junit,org.mockito,org.hamcrest</excludeGroupIds>
                        <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
