I tried to create a new project but it seems that the problem comes from netbeans configuration .
Could you help me please ?
Thank you in advance !

It seems as if the maven exec plugin is not well configured.
Have a look at the documentation: The plugin offers two goals exec and java
I am using the plugin with exec:java (run in same jvm) and you need to configure the MainClass like this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<mainClass>your.context.MainClass</mainClass>
</configuration>
</plugin>
On the other case (exec:exec) you should specify the executable as described in the specification / sample

Could you please help me to solve this problem?

Maven differentiates between resources, and test resources. Maybe you are putting the xml file, which is being marshalled, somewhere underneath the src/main/resources folder?
If thats the case, try copying the xml file to src/test/resources

How to make maven site build the correct links to the project modules

I have a maven multimodule project when I try to build the site, it creates the links in the main page with the module name, but the href points to http://maven.apache.com
How do I make either mvn site-deploy or mvn site:site site:deploy construct the right links? because the folder with the sub-site gets created the only issues is it is not linked.
Its driving me insane.

Relative links are calculated based on the value of the <url> element in the POM. Here, you just get the link that you specified in the <url> element of the POM of child-A. Remove this element and it will work (you should specify the proper URL in the parent actually).
