Thanks for the suggestions! However, I am still seeing the problem.
Originally I did not have MAVEN_HOME_LOCAL set (it was defaulting to
%HOME%\.maven). I set this to c:\devtools\mavenlocal and re-ran the
FAQ-suggested build. This still failed on the clover plugin (with the same
error about 'clean' being an unknown goal).
Looking at the plugin:uninstall/install steps for "clean", it appears to
remove the plugin from MAVEN_HOME and MAVEN_HOME_LOCAL, and then installs
only to MAVEN_HOME (see below)
plugin:uninstall:
[delete] Deleting 1 files from C:\devtools\maven\plugins
[delete] Deleting 5 files from C:\devtools\mavenlocal\plugins
[delete] Deleted 2 directories from C:\devtools\mavenlocal\plugins
plugin:install:
[copy] Copying 1 file to C:\devtools\maven\plugins
Does that make a difference?
Thanks for your help,
Paul
