Is the war goal for mvn supposed to work? It ends up with error(s)
about web.xml missing form various places.

Jira worthy?

Thanks,
Alex

it is supposed to work just fine. What errors are you getting?

Only relevant snippet:

[INFO] Generating war
/home/apetkov/workspace/geoserver-1.5.x/geoserver/maven/merger/target/merger-1.5.0-RC1.war
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

/home/apetkov/workspace/geoserver-1.5.x/geoserver/maven/merger/target/merger-1.5.0-RC1/WEB-INF/web.xml
does not exist.

This is after I manually copied the web.xml to a few other locations.
Finally got sick of it.

Are you running it from the web/ module?

It will work from there, using the 'release' config: mvn -DconfigId=release war:war

I believe brent is correct. You are running it from the root module so
it is executing for every single module, and since not every module is a
web based module it will fail. Executing from web as brent says should
fix it.

Perhaps we should make this more clear in the maven quickstart.

To be honest, I didn't look there, sorry (shame).

No problem, since it is not there :). I am going to add another section
to the quickstart titled "Building a Web Archive (war)".
