Maven release plugin fails when creating tag

Question

I\'m trying to use Maven release plugin 2.0 to tag the version and hopefully deploy the resulting jar to the repository.

I got stuck at release:prepare,

The problem isn't really maven here. It's more about svn itself. Maven stops its operation when svn send this error message :

svn: OPTIONS of 'http://myserver/myproject/sandbox/release-test': 200 OK (http://myserver)

Are you absolutly sure about the http://myserver/myproject/sandbox/release-test adress ?

If http://myserver/myproject/sandbox/release-test doesn't exists svn won't commit anything. Just replace the http:// by svn://

<scm>
    <connection>scm:svn:svn://myserver/myproject/sandbox/release-test/tags/release-test-1.3.0</connection>
    <developerConnection>scm:svn:svn://myserver/myproject/sandbox/release-test/tags/release-test-1.3.0</developerConnection>
    <url>svn://myserver/myproject/sandbox/release-test/tags/release-test-1.3.0</url>
</scm>
