maven快速入门番外篇——运行maven项目时报错：Failed to execute goal on project ...

问题描述

从下图可以看出，我的项目结构是一个父工程与多个子工程。

其中，crm-web子工程依赖于crm-service子工程，crm-service子工程又依赖于crm-dao子工程。当我通过crm-web子工程的pom.xml文件中配置的tomcat7插件来运行crm-web子工程时，给我报错了，eclipse控制台打印出了如下错误提示信息。

出错原因

为什么会报上面这样的错误呢？最后发现原来是自己没有首先对父工程进行install。

解决办法

解决这个问题就变得很简单了，在父工程创建完成后对父工程进行install，将父工程发布到本地仓库，以方便子工程继承。

结论：在父工程下有的子工程在首次运行前应该先对父工程进行install。
