is it me or maven documentation is useless because in link bellow:

link

it says that if you have generated your jar files by maven you can install it by following command:

mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:2.5.1:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file>

but when i try this:

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=E:\jarFiles\utill-1.0.jar -DlocalRepositoryPath=E:\repo

it gives me the following error:

The artifact information is incomplete or not valid:
[ERROR] [0]  'groupId' is missing.
[ERROR] [1]  'artifactId' is missin
[ERROR] [2]  'packaging' is missing
[ERROR] [3]  'version' is missing.
