I configured the maven-release-plugin for a multi module project , how ever when I run
I get and error like this
I am bit confused here since the module had version 1.0-SNAPSHOT and when I run a release build it should change to 1.0 and release, then why is it looking for a 1.0 in repos to download before it runs a build?
Version bumping is where the maven process updates the version number, like from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2. That's one of the useful features of the release goals.
You still seem to have a misdefinition on a dependency. It appears like you set up something like this:
"com.project." isn't a proper group id. It would typically be something more like "com.project.mvntest".
Sometimes the only way things ever got fixed is because people became uncomfortable.
