@TLNarayanaRao The earLocation parameter should be the path to the directory containing ear file. Please try using -

-DearLocation=/tmp/

It will use the first ear file available from the specified location.

@vpawar-ai

Hello Vishal,

Yes, we have provided the -DearLocation in the command line as a parameter when we execute.

Here is the complete command we are using...

/opt/maven/bin/mvn com.tibco.plugins:bw6-maven-plugin:2.6.0:bwdeployer -DearLocation="target/petm-associate-SAP-ESB-sys.application_1.0.18.ear" -DdeploymentConfigfile="configFile.txt" -X

Please let me know if you need further information.

[vpawar-tibco]

Hi @TLNarayanaRao ,

The -DearLocation should be path of the directory(excluding ear file name). Example -
if your ear is located at "/home/jenkins/workspace/myapp/target/myapp.ear" then use "-DearLocation=/home/jenkins/workspace/myapp/target/"
