> I thought this was working. Unfortunately, a product I was trying to use wanted to run with Maven 1.0.2 so I downloaded and installed it. But I changed all the settings I can find back to Maven 2.
> Now, I am trying to do a simple mvn clean install but I get errors no matter what.
> Is there a simple way to clean up everything and start over?
