Creating war file failed from maven multi module project using java

Question

I have a parent maven project and two child modules of that parent. One of the child modules has a packaging type of jar. And this jar is to be used in the other child module which has packaging type of war.

First child's pom.xml:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
      <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
      <parent>
        <groupId>com.zurel.myParent</groupId>
        <artifactId>myParent</artifactId>
        <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
      </parent>
      <artifactId>myFirstChild</artifactId>
      <packaging>jar</packaging>
</project>

Second child's pom.xml:

 <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
      <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
      <parent>
        <groupId>com.zurel.myParent</groupId>
        <artifactId>myParent</artifactId>
        <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
      </parent>
      <artifactId>myFirst</artifactId>
      <packaging>war</packaging>

    <dependencies>

            <!--other dependencies -->
            <dependency>
                 <groupId>com.zurel.myParent</groupId>
                <artifactId>myFirstChild</artifactId>
                <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
            </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    </project>

When I try to run package command in the second maven module, I get the following error:

SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation

pom of both the child modules look fine. However, Kindly ensure following is done: 1) Both child modules are added in the parent module (aggregator module) as modules 2) the aggregation module has packaging type of 'pom'
3) Run 'mvn clean install on parent module

Sample parent pom :

http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">

   <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
   <groupId>org.test</groupId>
   <artifactId>myParent</artifactId>
    <packaging>pom</packaging>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <name>myParent</name>
    <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>

   <modules>
    <module>../FirstChild</module>
    <module>../SecondChild</module>
   </modules>

You are missing "First child" dependency.
Do you have registered both modules in myParent? Is the order is so that "First child" builds first?
What command do you execute? It should "mvn install"
