How can I disable Apache RAT (Release Audit Tool) in Maven

Question

I have checked out Apache Archiva Redback and the compile is failing when I do mvn install because Apache RAT is failing and I haven't changed anything yet.

Answer 1

You can disable RAT by adding -Drat.skip=true to your maven command line.

Answer 2

You can config it in your pom file.

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.rat</groupId>
    <artifactId>apache-rat-plugin</artifactId>

    <configuration>
        <skip>true</skip>
    </configuration>
</plugin>
