Geronimo 3: car-maven-plugin changing bundle name

[rwengr]

I am trying to package the Apache Directory Server as a plugin for Geronimo
3.0.1 using the Maven project sources for 2.1.3 as a starting point.
Bundles are still a mystery, but it seems like maven is taking care of all
of that. I am using maven 2.2.

I can create the CAR file for 2.1.3. But when I set the Geronimo version to
3.0.1 in the POM file, I am getting a bundle error from the maven-car-plugin
when it tries to create the package. The unit test seems to work.

I reviewed built in documentation for car-maven-plugin using help:describe
and nothing seemed significant except adding the <artifact> element to the
configuration. -e and -X options for maven don't add any obvious useful
info.

I HOPE SOMEONE CAN SUGGEST POSSIBLE APPROACHES FOR A SOLUTION.

The actual error is:

[main] ERROR org.apache.geronimo.deployment.Deployer - Deployment failed due
to
org.apache.geronimo.gbean.InvalidConfigurationException: Could not load
class org.apache.geronimo.directory.DirectoryGBean from bundle
org.apache.geronimo.plugins.directory-DEPLOYMENT_2.18.14 [59] at location
reference:file:/tmp/geronimo-fileutils81463372379762518.tmpdir/
at
org.apache.geronimo.gbean.annotation.AnnotationGBeanInfoFactory.getGBeanInfo(AnnotationGBeanInfoFactory.java:42)
at
org.apache.geronimo.gbean.MultiGBeanInfoFactory.getGBeanInfo(MultiGBeanInfoFactory.java:66)
etc.

When I moved to the car-maven-plugin for Geronimo 3 I discovered that it
would insert DEPLOYMENT into the artifactId when it created plan.xml unless
I specified the artifact completely. I thought that would fix the problem.
As far as I can tell, plan.xml is being created correctly. But the plugin
seems to be ignoring the artifactId in the plan

*The problem is that the bundle name the plugin is looking for contains
"DEPLOYMENT" which I do not add and I cannot find with grep in my project
files. Somehow the plugin is using a modified name. Excerpts of the most
relevant details are below. *

I leave -SNAPSHOT out of the version because I read and observed it was
converted to .SNAPSHOT.

Excerpt of created plan.xml

<module xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/deployment-1.2">
<environment>
<moduleId>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>directory</artifactId>

I will be deleting this post because it is now covered by a new post I
created due to recent troubleshooting info.

If interested, please see my post about Apache Geronimo kernel and
car-maven-plugin.
