Solution 1

I had a similar problem.

As it turned out, I ran

mvn clean package install

Correct way is

mvn clean install

Solution 2

Your problem is that you have declare twice the exec-maven-plugin :

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.1</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>java</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <mainClass>C:\apache-camel-2.11.0\examples\camel-example-smooks-  
      integration\src\main\java\example\Main< /mainClass>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

...

< plugin>
    < groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    < artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    < version>1.2</version>
< /plugin>

Solution 3

I had the same problem but after deleting the old plugin for org.codehaus.mojo it worked.

I use this

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.2</version>
</plugin>

Solution 4

I had a similar problem with 'org.codehaus.mojo'-'jaxws-maven-plugin': could not resolve dependencies. Fortunately, I was able to do a Project > Clean in Eclipse, which resolved the issue.

I've tried following things so far to eliminate this error, havent got any success yet.

1.DownGraded the JDK from  Version 1.7 to jdk1.6.0_18

2.Added the **main class** in the **plugin for org.codehaus.mojo**

          <configuration>
            <mainClass>C:\apache-camel-2.11.0\examples\camel-example-smooks-integration\src\main\java\example\Main</mainClass>
        </configuration>

Hey Pith, I tried deleting the duplicate entries for < groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> its still failing with same error:
Pith almost 11 years

You have delete the entire plugin, not only the groupId ?
S Gaber almost 6 years

where I can do this in Netbeans?
Yan Khonski almost 6 years

I do not use NetBeans. I ran the command in the command line. As I remember, Eclipse allows to create build tasks.

These commands are equivalent. Maven will run all preceding steps in the lifecycle, so specifying install means that package will be run as well, and compile, etc.
