My solution was to insert  lt packaging gt pom lt  packaging gt  between artifactId and version   lt groupId gt com onlinechat lt  groupId gt   lt artifactId gt chat-online lt  artifactId gt   lt packaging gt pom lt  packaging gt   lt version gt 1 0-SNAPSHOT lt  version gt   lt modules gt       lt module gt server lt  module gt       lt module gt client lt  module gt       lt module gt network lt  module gt   lt  modules gt

For me  adding the following block of code under  lt dependency management gt  lt dependencies gt  solved the problem   lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org glassfish lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt javax el lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 3 0 1-b06 lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt

In case anybody comes back to this  I think the problem here was failing to install the parent pom first  which all these submodules depend on  so the Maven Reactor can t collect the necessary dependencies to build the submodule   So from the root directory  here D  luna workspace empire club empirecl  it probably just needs a    mvn clean install    Aside   lt relativePath gt    pom xml lt  relativePath gt  is not really necessary as it s the default value

In my case I forgot it was packaging conflict jar vs pom  I forgot to write    lt packaging gt pom lt  packaging gt    In every child pom xml file
