Brett, Many thanks. This is a clean install of maven2. When I run the command
mvn -U compile The output states artefact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin: checking for updates from central But then I still get the message [INFO] The plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin' does not exist or no valid versi on could be found So is the plugin in the right place in central ? I can find the plugin at http://repo1.mave,.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/plugins/... So why can't mvn ? Any more help appreciated as I am not sure how to install plugins if I cannot install the install plugin.

Maven 2 new install. This seems to be an issue of upgrading an old install. Please run with -U and see if that helps - it will force an update. - Brett On 12/2/05, Russell Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Allan, > Thanks for your reply.
