Eclipse: "Unable to update POM" - Could not write file
Hi!
Im first trying Maven using the eclipse plugin, but I'm getting this
error when I add a dependency to my project:
Unable to update POM: I:\SHARED\xxx\pom.xml; Could not write file:
I:\SHARED\xxx\pom.xml.
If I create a new Maven project within eclipse and I add a dependency
in the wizard, the dependency is added correctly. The problem occurs
only when I add a new one.
Thanks!

Yes, it is writable.
I have advanced with this problem, and I discovered that if I edit
pom.xml using the eclipse editor, *sometimes* I cannot save it (it
shows a message saying "Could not write file") . This does not happen
with any other file, only with pom.xml. Very strange... Im not sharing
this project with anybody, the directory is only writable by me...

Stupid question maybe, but is the pom.xml file writable on the
filesystem?
