I want to include external jar to my existing
maven project. I used following command to install it to local maven repository:
mvn -e install:install -Dfile="D:\test\com.project.MyApp.externalLib-1.0.jar" -DgroupId=com.project -DartifactId=MyApp -Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=jar
and got following exception:
org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: The packaging for this p
roject did not assign a file to the build artifact

What needs to be done in this case ? I am not getting any useful articles on internet as well.
Basic question : It "should" be possible to add a third party non maven library to a maven project. Is this correct ?
Also, what can I check to have this working ?
Thanks,
Kacee
