Solution

I edit my command by adding quotes for every parameter like this:
`mvn install:install-file "-DgroupId=org.mozilla" "-DartifactId=jss" "-Dversion=4.2.5" "-Dpackaging=jar" "-Dfile=C:\Users\AArmijos\workspace\componentes-1.0.4\deps\jss-4.2.5.jar" `
It's worked.
Problem
I have a `pom.xml` in `C:\Users\AArmijos\Desktop\Factura Electronica\MIyT\componentes-1.0.4\sources\pom.xml` and I executed: ``` mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=es.mityc.jumbo.adsi -DartifactId=xmlsec-1.4.2-ADSI -Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=C:\Users\AArmijos\Desktop\Factura Electronica\MIyT\componentes-1.0.4\core\xmlsec-1.4.2-ADSI-1.0.jar ``` however it returned the error below: ``` [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 0.310s [INFO] Finished at: Thu May 02 16:48:29 COT 2013 [INFO] Final Memory: 2M/15M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] The goal you specified requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory (C:\Users\AArmijos). Please verify you invoked Maven from the correct directory. -> [Help 1] ``` Can someone explain why it fails?
