project it still doesnt work.I have edited the settings.xml as much as I

<!--
| This is the configuration file for Maven. It can be specified at two
levels:
|
| 1. User Level. This settings.xml file provides configuration for a
single user,
| and is normally provided in $HOME/.m2/settings.xml.
|
| NOTE: This location can be overridden with the system
property:
|
|
-Dorg.apache.maven.user-settings=/path/to/user/settings.xml
|
| 2. Global Level. This settings.xml file provides configuration for all
maven
| users on a machine (assuming they're all using the same
maven
| installation). It's normally provided in
| ${maven.home}/conf/settings.xml.
|
| NOTE: This location can be overridden with the system
property:
|
|
-Dorg.apache.maven.global-settings=/path/to/global/settings.xml
|
| The sections in this sample file are intended to give you a running start
at
| getting the most out of your Maven installation. Where appropriate, the
default
| values (values used when the setting is not specified) are provided.
|
|-->
<settings>
<!-- localRepository
| The path to the local repository maven will use to store artifacts.
|
| Default: ~/.m2/repository
-->
<localRepository>C:\Documents and
Settings\muthiaA\.m2\repository</localRepository>
<!-- interactiveMode
| This will determine whether maven prompts you when it needs input. If
set to false,
| maven will use a sensible default value, perhaps based on some other
setting, for
| the parameter in question.
|
| Default: true
<interactiveMode>true</interactiveMode>
-->
<!-- offline
| Determines whether maven should attempt to connect to the network when
executing a build.
| This will have an effect on artifact downloads, artifact deployment,
and others.
|
| Default: false
-->
<offline>true</offline>
<!-- proxies
| This is a list of proxies which can be used on this machine to connect
to the network.
| Unless otherwise specified (by system property or command-line switch),
the first proxy
| specification in this list marked as active will be used.
|-->
<proxies>
| Specification for one proxy, to be used in connecting to the network.
|
<proxy>
<id>optional</id>
<active>true</active>
<protocol>http</protocol>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>8080</port>
<nonProxyHosts>www.google.com</nonProxyHosts>
</proxy>
</proxies>
<!-- servers
| This is a list of authentication profiles, keyed by the server-id used
within the system.
| Authentication profiles can be used whenever maven must make a
connection to a remote server.
|-->
<servers>
<!-- server
| Specifies the authentication information to use when connecting to a
particular server, identified by
| a unique name within the system (referred to by the 'id' attribute
below).
|
| NOTE: You should either specify username/password OR
privateKey/passphrase, since these pairings are
| used together.
|
<server>
<id>deploymentRepo</id>
<username>repouser</username>
<password>repopwd</password>
</server>
-->
<!-- Another sample, using keys to authenticate.
<server>
<id>siteServer</id>
<privateKey>/path/to/private/key</privateKey>
<passphrase>optional; leave empty if not used.</passphrase>
</server>
-->
</servers>
<!-- mirrors
| This is a list of mirrors to be used in downloading artifacts from
remote repositories.
|
| It works like this: a POM may declare a repository to use in resolving
certain artifacts.
| However, this repository may have problems with heavy traffic at times,
so people have mirrored
| it to several places.
|
| That repository definition will have a unique id, so we can create a
mirror reference for that
| repository, to be used as an alternate download site. The mirror site
will be the preferred
| server for that repository.
|-->
<mirrors>
<!-- mirror
| Specifies a repository mirror site to use instead of a given
repository. The repository that
| this mirror serves has an ID that matches the mirrorOf element of
this mirror. IDs are used
| for inheritance and direct lookup purposes, and must be unique across
the set of mirrors.
|
<mirror>
<id>mirrorId</id>
<mirrorOf>repositoryId</mirrorOf>
<name>Human Readable Name for this Mirror.</name>
<url>http://my.repository.com/repo/path</url>
</mirror>
-->
</mirrors>
<!-- profiles
| This is a list of profiles which can be activated in a variety of ways,
and which can modify
| the build process. Profiles provided in the settings.xml are intended
to provide local machine-
| specific paths and repository locations which allow the build to work
in the local environment.
|
| For example, if you have an integration testing plugin - like cactus -
that needs to know where
| your Tomcat instance is installed, you can provide a variable here such
that the variable is
| dereferenced during the build process to configure the cactus plugin.
|
| As noted above, profiles can be activated in a variety of ways. One way
- the activeProfiles
| section of this document (settings.xml) - will be discussed later.
Another way essentially
| relies on the detection of a system property, either matching a
particular value for the property,
| or merely testing its existence. Profiles can also be activated by JDK
version prefix, where a
| value of '1.4' might activate a profile when the build is executed on a
JDK version of '1.4.2_07'.
| Finally, the list of active profiles can be specified directly from the
command line.
|
| NOTE: For profiles defined in the settings.xml, you are restricted to
specifying only artifact
| repositories, plugin repositories, and free-form properties to be
used as configuration
| variables for plugins in the POM.
|
|-->
<profiles>
<!-- profile
| Specifies a set of introductions to the build process, to be
activated using one or more of the
| mechanisms described above. For inheritance purposes, and to activate
profiles via <activatedProfiles/>
| or the command line, profiles have to have an ID that is unique.
|
| An encouraged best practice for profile identification is to use a
consistent naming convention
| for profiles, such as 'env-dev', 'env-test', 'env-production',
'user-jdcasey', 'user-brett', etc.
| This will make it more intuitive to understand what the set of
introduced profiles is attempting
| to accomplish, particularly when you only have a list of profile id's
for debug.
|
| This profile example uses the JDK version to trigger activation, and
provides a JDK-specific repo.
<profile>
<id>jdk-1.4</id>
<activation>
<jdk>1.4</jdk>
</activation>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>jdk14</id>
<name>Repository for JDK 1.4 builds</name>
<url>http://www.myhost.com/maven/jdk14</url>
<layout>default</layout>
<snapshotPolicy>always</snapshotPolicy>
</repository>
</repositories>
</profile>
-->
<!--
| Here is another profile, activated by the system property
'target-env' with a value of 'dev',
| which provides a specific path to the Tomcat instance. To use this,
your plugin configuration
| might hypothetically look like:
|
| ...
| <plugin>
| <groupId>org.myco.myplugins</groupId>
| <artifactId>myplugin</artifactId>
|
| <configuration>
| <tomcatLocation>${tomcatPath}</tomcatLocation>
| </configuration>
| </plugin>
| ...
|
| NOTE: If you just wanted to inject this configuration whenever
someone set 'target-env' to
| anything, you could just leave off the <value/> inside the
activation-property.
|
<profile>
<id>env-dev</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>target-env</name>
<value>dev</value>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<tomcatPath>/path/to/tomcat/instance</tomcatPath>
</properties>
</profile>
-->
</profiles>
<!-- activeProfiles
| List of profiles that are active for all builds.
|
<activeProfiles>
<activeProfile>alwaysActiveProfile</activeProfile>
<activeProfile>anotherAlwaysActiveProfile</activeProfile>
</activeProfiles>
-->
</settings>
