Issue with jbake-maven-plugin

Question

I'm following the dukes-age example application from https://javaee.github.io/firstcup/creating-example002.html, and I'm facing an issue when trying to build the dukes-age.war.

The error received on building is:

Failed to execute goal from com.blazebit:jbake-maven-plugin:1.0.0:build (build-site) on project dukes-age: Failure when running: Error: Source folder must exist: ... -> [Help 1]

I've changed the pom.xml file as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks a lot

You don't need the BlazeBit version of the JBake Maven Plugin to build the duke-ages.war I'd suggest you comment out the dependency and the plugin section for this and try again.
