[MRESOURCES-272] Error message is not clear

**[Maxim Solodovnik](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=solomax)** opened **[MRESOURCES-272](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOURCES-272?redirect=false)** and commented

If maven-resources-plugin get some binary file it reports following error:

```
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.2.0:copy-resources (prepare-test-resources) on project openmeetings-web: Input length = 1 -> [Help 1]
```

which is not very helpful

if `mvn -e` is used the error is

```
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.2.0:copy-resources (prepare-test-resources) on project openmeetings-web: Input length = 1 -> [Help 1]
