maven wget nexus maven-assembly-plugin maven-deploy-plugin

I am using the assembly plugin to build a jar with dependancies and then zip the project. The zip should then be uploaded to nexus. The clean install works and generates the zip file as expected. The deploy command fails:

I have a few issues here. Firstly, I want to have a custom ZIP filename rather than the default one. Secondly, only the ZIP file should be deployed to Nexus and not the jars. Thirdly, why isn't the deploy working in it's current state? And lastly, can you please tell me how I can automatically download the last release from nexus using wget maybe?

I've spent too long on this and tried too much. I'd be very grateful for any help.

Basically you cannot deploy a zip using a maven-assembly plugin. Assembly part is a part of packaging, while deployment happens later. Check if this link is useful

Deploying assembly package with maven-release-plugin

OR

You can use this plugin to deploy the zip or tar file maven-build-helper-plugin
