Thanks for the replies  but after some more searching I was able to fix the problem  It turned out that I had to remove one of the    lastUpdated  which was preventing one of my plugins  Maven Surefire Plugin  from updating  I did this manually  because a maven clean wasn t doing it apparently   The problem was that the    lastUpdated  file for a plugin was blocking the maven check for updates and not allowing a necessary jar to get downloaded

for mac I removed all the old failed downloads of maven there were several versions of maven also on my mac find    m2  -name  quot   lastUpdated quot  -exec grep -q  quot Could not transfer quot       -print -exec rm      after that  I simply updated my eclipse by help - gt  check for updates and the problem resolved for me the main reason for this problem is the failed old updates does not allow you to download archetype so if you try to build project in any archetype of maven it gets failed

If you are behind a proxy  you have to update the settings xml file  under the conf folder of your MAVEN HOME  the file itself contains information about the proxy settings  and additionally you may need to update your Eclipse Network Settings  Window- Preferences   -  type Network Connections     Try using -X or --debug in order to get the debug output  this could provide additional information about the problem

It happened to me as Iam behind a firewall  The dependencies doesn t get downloaded sometimes when you are running in  Eclipse IDE  Make sure you use mvn clean install -U to resolve the problem  You would see the dependencies download after this

It Happened to me also you may have  two solue tion for this   If your project consist of some external or project specificdependency in it then you have to manually add it to your M2 repo folder which is located at C  Users Mohit Singh m2 repository folder and then you have to run  mvn eclipse eclipse and then mvn clean install from the project folder if you do not have any wxternal or project sppecific dependency then you may import the project into eclipse as Existing maven project then right click on project --  GO to maven --  Click on update project a window will appear check the force snapshot download option and hit on OK

The solution that work for me is the following    Copy the dependency to pom    lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org apache maven lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt maven-archiver lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 2 5 lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt   Click right on your project Select Maven Select Update project Select Force Update of Snapshots Releases
