I don’t have a Maven project. What I have is a jar with the pom.xml embedded in the file. When I deploy this via the Artifactory GUI, Artifactory finds the pom and deploys it with the jar. It even recognizes the groupId, artifactId, and version.

When I try using mvn deploy:deploy-file it fails. If I extract the pom, and run mvn deploy:deploy-file with the -DpomFile=pom.xml, it works. Is there a way of deploying this jar with the embedded pom via the Maven command line? Or, do I need to extract the pom.xml first?

    I have not heard of the possibility to specify the pom file from archive. I think it is unlikely to be an option, because Maven itself is just a light-weight program, which runs with plugins; and it needs some configurations to run with; and all references to plugins to be used are in those files.

    Consider writing an Ant script that will extract the file, run mvn deploy:deploy-file -DpomFile=pom.xml and then delete the file.

    The solution looks not very nice, I know, but it should help.
