How to install weblogic maven plugin for weblogic v12.1.2 (12c)?

To install weblogic application server I decompressed 2 files I got from or oracle using these links:

http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/12c/wls/1212/wls1212_dev.zip http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/12c/wls/1212/wls1212_dev_supplemental.zip

..found on this page.

I simply decompressed both files and they automatically decompress to the same folder. setting the MW_HOME and JAVA_HOME environment variables to point to the decompressed folder and Java 7 JDK locations respectively, I ran the configure.cmd file and it ended successfully.

The problem is that I can't reach the same result this page shows if I follow the instructions on it. I summarized these instructions here: (ORACLE_HOME is identical to MW_HOME, they both point to the installation folder.)

%ORACLE_HOME%/wlserver/server/bin/setWLSEnv
cd %ORACLE_HOME%/oracle_common/plugins/maven/com/oracle/maven/oracle-maven-sync/12.1.2
mvn install:install-file -DpomFile=oracle-maven-sync.12.1.2.pom -Dfile=oracle-maven-sync.12.1.2.jar
mvn com.oracle.maven:oracle-maven-sync:push -Doracle-maven-sync.oracleHome=D:/oracle_home
mvn help:describe -DgroupId=com.oracle.weblogic -DartifactId=weblogic-maven-plugin -Dversion=12.1.2-0-0

Where oracle-maven-sync.oracleHome is The path to the Oracle home that you wish to populate the Maven repository from.. Its basically the Weblogic directory having wlserver directory in it.

The problem is that the last line (the line that asks the installed plugin for description), shows the following error message (Ignore the masked IPs, I masked them manually in this question):

What makes me think that this is NOT a network problem, is that I've successfully installed this plugin before, but I can't remember how exactly so may be I'm missing some steps ?

How can I resolve this please ? My goal is to be able to refer to weblogic's libraries from maven as a dependency in the following way:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.oracle.weblogic</groupId>
    <artifactId>weblogic-server-pom</artifactId>
    <version>12.1.2-0-0</version>
    <type>pom</type>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

The answer is on this page which mentions how to install weblogic's maven dependencies in the local repository. For installing them on the remote repository, follow the instructions in this section.

For quick reference, I had to run this command (Please read the comments after the command before running it):

mvn com.oracle.maven:oracle-maven-sync:push -Doracle-maven-sync.oracleHome=%ORACLE_HOME% -Doracle-maven-sync.testingOnly=false

Where -Doracle-maven-sync.oracleHome represents weblogic's installation folder. Its a folder that should hold directories like and not only:

oracle_common
user_projects
wlserver

In my question I already ran the plugin mvn com.oracle.maven:oracle-maven-sync:push but I didn't specify the parameters mentioned here.

As per the WebLogic 12.1.2 documentation page, follow these instructions:

Install the Oracle Maven sync plug-in and run the push goal:

Change directory to ORACLE_HOME\oracle_common\plugins\maven\com\oracle\maven\oracle-maven-sync\12.1.2.

mvn install:install-file -DpomFile=oracle-maven-sync.12.1.2.pom -Dfile=oracle-maven-sync.12.1.2.jar.

mvn com.oracle.maven:oracle-maven-sync:push -Doracle-maven-sync.oracleHome=c:\oracle\middleware\oracle_home.

You can validate whether you have successfully installed the plug-in using the Maven help:describe goal. See the Apache help plug-in describe goal documentation for additional information.

mvn help:describe -DgroupId=com.oracle.weblogic -DartifactId=weblogic-maven-plugin -Dversion=12.1.2-0-0
