I am facing below problem. I thought it is because of the some special chars in the following path as "C:\Users\Meri�.m2\r". I changed the encoding type as in the most upvoted answer UTF8 Encoding but error still persist. I check the file path and I can see that there is a jar file called, maven-antrun-plugin-1.7.jar.

--- maven-antrun-plugin:1.7:run (generate-status-code-file) @ bla_bla ---
    [WARNING] Parameter tasks is deprecated, use target instead

What can I do to fix this error?

Note: I imported a maven project from a repo, to my eclipse. I added specific settings.xml file added to maven settings. Then tried to build the project.

maven java

Your problem is likely caused by a schizophrenic character encoding situation, typical of some Windows installations. It's having a problem with the Unicode/native encoding in the area of the 'complex' characters in your home directory path. If you find out the DOS name of your home dir by dir C:\Users /ad/x then you can try something like mvn -Duser.home=C:\Users\MYNAME~1 compile.

Move the project out of your home directory.
