[java] Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin or one of its dependencies could not be resolved

I was getting this problem when using IBM RSA 9.6.1 when building a brand new development machine. The problem for me ended up being because of HTTPS on the Global Maven repository. My solution was to create a Maven settings.xml that forced it to use HTTP.

The key to me was that the central repository was empty when I exploded it under Maven Repositories -- > Global Repositories

Using the following settings file worked for me:

<settings>
  <activeProfiles>
    <!--make the profile active all the time -->
    <activeProfile>insecurecentral</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>
  <profiles>
    <profile>
      <id>insecurecentral</id>
      <!--Override the repository (and pluginRepository) "central" from the Maven Super POM -->
      <repositories>
        <repository>
          <id>central</id>
          <url>http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2</url>
          <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
          </releases>
        </repository>
      </repositories>
      <pluginRepositories>
        <pluginRepository>
          <id>central</id>
          <url>http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2</url>
          <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
          </releases>
        </pluginRepository>
      </pluginRepositories>
    </profile>
  </profiles>
</settings>

I got the idea from this stackoverflow question.
