How to fix this, no targets were specified for this build on maven?
I am trying to build this Maven project:
Inside this maven:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"

I found several questions about this like:
- There are no targets specified for this build.
- maven - j2objc - No targets specified for this build
- No targets specified for this build
- Maven how to find out what settings.xml is in use (Ubuntu)
- How do I fix this build path error?
- How to fix this maven warning in Eclipse: "No schema defined for this pom.xml file"
They say I need to set a goal:
<goals>
<goal>exploded</goal>
</goals>
But I don't know how to put that in the config file above. This is the full log output when starting the original one pom.xml
:

I would hate to run it from eclipse. I would rather just call on the command line mvn
, as I am currently doing.

The target can be listed in your plugin-plugin section pom.xml
, depending on what you want to accomplish with the application.
eg. if you want to execute it, you can follow the steps outlined in the question How to execute a program using Maven? ...
I don't think you can do it with just using mvn
, but you need to specify what is happening (for example, mvn package
or mvn install
)
You can read more about the goals and stages of the Introduction to the Build Lifecycle .
