Hi, I've tried building some mojo plugins that depend on root mojo POM version 13 and they failed with 2.0.5. In particular the exec plugin until I partially cleaned my repository.
maven 2.0.4 was ignoring the maven-plugin-plugin because it is incompatible with 2.0.5: [INFO] Ignoring available plugin update: 2.2-SNAPSHOT as it requires Maven version 2.0.5-SNAPSHOT But with 2.0.5 it tries to use it but did not find it: [WARNING] Unable to get resource 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-plugin-plugin:pom:2.2-SNAPSHOT' from repository snapshots (http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org) [WARNING] Unable to get resource 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-plugin-plugin:pom:2.2-SNAPSHOT' from repository codehaus.org (http://repository.codehaus.org) [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] A required plugin was not found: Plugin could not be found - check that the goal name is correct: Unable to download the artifact from any repository Try downloading the file manually from the project website. Then, install it using the command: mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.maven.plugins -DartifactId=maven-plugin-plugin \ -Dversion=2.2-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=maven-plugin -Dfile=/path/to/file Cleaning up my repository fixed it.
