Sebastian, You also need to add the repository as a plugin repository, as follows:
<pluginRepositories> <pluginRepository> <id>Apache SNAPSHOTS</id> <name>Apache SNAPSHOTS</name> <url>http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository</url> <releases> <enabled>true</enabled> <updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy> <checksumPolicy>warn</checksumPolicy> </releases> <snapshots> <enabled>true</enabled> <updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy> <checksumPolicy>fail</checksumPolicy> </snapshots> </pluginRepository> </pluginRepositories> This took a bit of Googling when I had the same problem!

I added: <repositories> <repository> <id>Apache SNAPSHOTS</id> <name>Apache SNAPSHOTS</name> <url>http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository</url> <releases> <enabled>true</enabled> <updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy> <checksumPolicy>warn</checksumPolicy> </releases> <snapshots> <enabled>true</enabled> <updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy> <checksumPolicy>fail</checksumPolicy> </snapshots> </repository> <!-- <repository> <id>CodeHaus SNAPSHOTS</id> <name>CodeHaus SNAPSHOTS</name> to the parent pom and get an error as shown in the error.txt attachment. The actual pom is attached as pom.xml Any suggestions??
