I'm working on an enhancement to the error handling so this won't
cause too much confusion.
Cheers,

jar and
see the plugin.xml file in META-INF/maven/plugin.xml. Here is the
sample
pom to illustrate the issue.

<build>

As per MNG-3284, Maven 2.1 and 3.x are now considering the version
when loading plugins. This in turn makes Maven less forgiving about
bad plugin descriptors like the one included in the plugin JAR [1]
you mentioned:
<plugin>
<description></description>
<groupId>com.caucho</groupId>
<artifactId>resin-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
...
</plugin>
Note the version "3.1-SNAPSHOT". You declared to use resin-maven-
plugin:3.1.6 but the plugin descriptor is actually for resin-maven-
plugin:3.1-SNAPSHOT. This mismatch causes the error.
You should contact the maintainer of the plugin and request a new
release with proper metadata.
