1. Cause of the problem: from the installation system, from the Win7 to the WIN10
As the system is re-installed, when you open Eclipse, maven validation will go wrong, click the Pom file, you will find a red cannot read lifecycle mapping metadata for artifact Org.apache.maven.plugins:mav. Click on it when it is blank ....
2. Trace the cause of the error
Alt+f5,update all, will prompt the error message, originally is C:\Users\Administrator\.m2\repository this inside can not find what what to cause.
3. Workaround
The C:\Users\Administrator\.m2\repository repository to remove, and then go back to continue Alt+f5, Sao Sao Sao wait a moment ok.
I maven in the Setting.xml file image configuration is beautiful, if Sir you are the local warehouse, I am sorry, I do not know whether the above can solve your needs.
