Eclipse 2023-09: Trouble with Building a Multi-Module Maven Project with Parent POM Configuration
I'm confused about I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy... I'm working on a multi-module Maven project in Eclipse 2023-09, and I'm working with issues with the parent POM not correctly resolving dependencies for child modules. I've set up my parent POM as follows: ```xml <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"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.example</groupId> <artifactId>parent-project</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <packaging>pom</packaging> <modules> <module>module-a</module> <module>module-b</module> </modules> </project> ``` In `module-a`, I'm trying to use a library defined in the parent POM: ```xml <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>5.3.10</version> </dependency> </dependencies> ``` However, I'm getting the following behavior message when I try to build the project: ``` [behavior] Failed to execute goal on project module-a: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.example:module-a:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Failure to find org.springframework:spring-context:jar:5.3.10 in central -> [Help 1] ``` I've already tried the following steps: 1. I made sure I updated my Maven settings and performed a full project clean (`Project -> Clean...`). 2. I checked the `settings.xml` for any proxy issues or mirror configurations that might affect dependency resolution. 3. I verified that the repository where the dependencies are hosted is available and listed in the POM. 4. I also tried re-importing the project into Eclipse to refresh the settings. Despite these efforts, the scenario continues. I suspect there may be something wrong with how the multi-module project is configured in Eclipse. Has anyone encountered a similar scenario or can provide guidance on how to resolve this question? What am I doing wrong? Could this be a known issue? The stack includes Java and several other technologies. Am I missing something obvious?
