Maven exec plugin question

I'm using Maven 3.0.3 on Mac 10.6.6. After packaging my war, I want to execute an unzip command (I want to do this because I'm using a Grails plugin that deletes the exploded war directory). So I have this in my pom.xml …

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.1</version>
    <configuration>
        <executable>unzip</executable>
        <arguments>
            <argument>-d target/jx-1.0-SNAPSHOT target/jx-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war</argument>
        </arguments>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>verify</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>exec</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

However, when I execute the command that invokes the plugin, I get the error …

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, - Dave

You're packing multiple arguments into one <argument>. That element takes exactly one argument, like "-d" or "target/jx-1.0-SNAPSHOT" from your example. You either have to break them up, or you can try using <commandlineArgs> instead.

As Ryan writes, you'll want this:

<argument>-d</argument>
<argument>target/jx-1.0-SNAPSHOT</argument>
<argument>target/jx-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war</argument>

But also, you are hard-coding lots of stuff that should be implemented using maven variables. So here's a better version:

<argument>-d</argument>
<argument>${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}</argument>
<argument>${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}.${project.packaging}</argument>
