Any way you mentioned  root  m2 settings xml   But in my Case i missed the settings xml to configure in the maven preferences   so that maven will search for the relative path pom xml from the remote repository which is configured in settings xml

I encountered an issue like this using the Maven Release Plugin  Resolving using relative paths  i e  for the parent pom in the child module    parent pom xml  did not seem to work in this scenario  it keeps looking for the released parent pom in the Nexus repository  Moving the parent pom to the parent folder of the module resolved this

You need to have the file  root test devenv openstack-rhel pom xml  This file need to have the followings elements    lt project xmlns  http   maven apache org POM 4 0 0  xmlns xsi  http   www w3 org 2001 XMLSchema-instance  xsi schemaLocation  http   maven apache org POM 4 0 0 http   maven apache org xsd maven-4 0 0 xsd  gt       lt modelVersion gt 4 0 0 lt  modelVersion gt       lt groupId gt org openstack lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt openstack-rhel-rpms lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 2012 1-SNAPSHOT lt  version gt       lt packaging gt pom lt  packaging gt   lt  project gt

Give the relative path URL value to the pom xml file    parentfoldername pom xml

Make sure you have settings xml  I had the same problem when I ve deleted it by mistake

I faced the same issue  Setting relative path of the parent in module projects solved the issue    Use  lt relativePath gt    Parent Project Name pom xml lt  relativePath gt

In pom xml file of the project     lt parent gt   lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt   lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-parent lt  artifactId gt   lt version gt X X X RELEASE lt  version gt   lt relativePath gt     PROJECTNAME pom xml lt  relativePath gt   lt  parent gt    Pointing relativepath to the same MAVEN project POM file solved the issue for me

User · Answer

In my case  the reason was a simple typo     lt parent gt       lt groupId gt org sringframework boot lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-parent lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 2 1 5 RELEASE lt  version gt   lt  parent gt    A missing character in the groupId org s p ringframework lead to this error

We had the same issue   The parent pom file was available in our local repository  but maven still unsuccessfully tried to download it from the central repository  or from the relativePath  there were no files in the relative path    Turns out  there was a file called   remote repositories  in the local repository  which was causing this behavior  After deleting all the files with this name from the complete local repository  we could build our modules
