I've searched this problem as the title says but still don't know what I should do. I am trying to build an executable jar file, but one of the plugins maven-assembly-plugin cannot be resolved.
I've tried the https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/usage.html
but it doesn't work. I put the entire pom.xml file, and the plugin is at the bottom of the file. Any help is highly appreciated.
Here is the error message:
Plugin could not be resolved. Ensure the plugin's groupId, artifactId and
version are present. Additional information: Plugin
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.2-beta-5 or one of its
dependencies could not be resolved: Failed to read
artifact descriptor for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:jar:2.2-beta-5
