---------------------------------------

             Summary: Confusing error message on required parameter
                 Key: MNG-7958
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7958
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Christoph Läubrich


If a required parameter is missing one gets the following error:

{code:java}
The parameters 'repositories' for goal 
org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-eclipse-plugin:5.0.0-SNAPSHOT:eclipse-run are missing 
or invalid
{code}

This is very bad from user-experience point of view, there should be no doubt 
for the user if it is required (and missing) or invalid (present but has wrong 
value). If it is invalid it should even mention why (e.g. incompatible types).
