AFAIK, the "rc" profile was intended for creating release candidates *before* Nexus was introduced. Now that all Commons components (probably all ASF projects) use Nexus, I suspect the "rc" profile is redundant. Instead, try using the "release" profile. mvn package deploy -Prelease This publishes the jars to the Maven repo via the Nexus staging repo.
