Install maven plugin in eclipse juno

Question

I am trying to install maven 1.5 in eclipse unfortunately I am getting errors like:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not          


        

Answer 1

This is because maven 1.5 is not compatible with eclipse juno. So we need to use maven 1.4 or 1.3

Steps to install maven 1.4 is below

1. Click Help in eclipse
2. Install New Software
3. Url for the location of site is "http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases"
4. Uncheck the checkbox "Show only the latest versions of available software" if do not uncheck the checkbox it will only latest version and do not show maven 1.4.
5. Select m2e and slf4j of 1.4 version and click next.

Note: maven v 1.3 is compatible, correct url for juno: download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases/1.3

Answer 2

If all the above options don't work, then first install the WST plugin in your eclipse.

In order to do that, in Eclipse Juno, go to Install New Software > Add, under Name place Juno and under Location URL insert http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno.

Then, select WST Server Adapters under Web, XML, Java, ... (last option of the list).

Accept licensing agreement and restart Eclipse.

Then resume the usual procedure to install Maven.

Answer 3

Uncheck the option "Select only the latest version of this software", so that versions of the plugin compatible to your eclipse will be displayed, you can select one of them.

Answer 4

Choose menu Help \ Install New Software..., then add this repository link:

http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases/1.2/1.2.0.20120903-1050/

Then install for Eclipse WTP (Web Tool Platform) Juno 4.2.

Answer 5

EClipse juno doesnt support maven 1.5..still they have not added capability of 1.5
