How do I resolve the ” < plugin name > does not exist or no valid version ” error?
This error indicates that Maven is either unable to access the required plug-in from your local repository, or unable to access the official or ‘central’ Maven2 plug-in repository. To resolve this error: • If you are behind a http proxy, please check the Maven2 proxy settings guide. • If you are upgrading Maven from an older version, try running with -U. This will force an update check on all plug-ins. If the error persists, browse archived discussions, post to the Maven user list, or log a ticketdescribing your problem, if you think it is a bug. Tickets may also be issued for feature enhancement requests, and other tasks.
