Description:
This issue is originally reported at https://wso2.org/jira/projects/WMS/issues/WMS-73 by Sabra Ossen.

Build of sample https://github.com/wso2/msf4j/tree/master/samples/metrics-httpmon/metrics-httpmon-fatjar results in two jars, a jar having service classes with all dependencies and a jar having only the service classes.

Only the jar file having all dependencies can be executed to start the micro service.

This is happening due to the shade plugin. It first created the jar. Then rename it as original-*.jar and build the shaded jar with all the dependencies and name it as actual artifact name + version. Have to check if the configs can be set to disable creating original jar
