[jira] Commented: (MNG-1502) FAQ submission: Missing plugin

["Anuerin Diaz (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1502?page=comments#action_50593 ] 

Anuerin Diaz commented on MNG-1502:
-----------------------------------

Or change the last sentence to the following (I cant seem to find the link to edit submitted issues):

=============
If the problem still persists you may seek help from the Maven user list, <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/users@maven.apache.org/">browse the archives</a> or <a href="http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG">log a ticket</a> describing your problem. 
============

The search functionality on mail-archive.org is easier to use than nabble which is why I prefer it.

ciao!

> Hi,
>    Since this is a common occurence especially for new users, it might be beneficial including a FAQ entry similar to the following:
> =================
> Why am I getting a "<plugin name> does not exist or no valid version" error?
> This means that Maven is unable to access the required plugin from your local repository, and unable to access the official or 'central' Maven2 plugin repository.
> You may troubleshoot the problem by performing the following actions:
> <ul>
> <li>
> If you are behind a http proxy, please check the Maven2 <a href="http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-proxies.html">proxy settings guide</a>.
> </li>
> <li>
> If the plugin you seek cannot be redistributed freely then you may <a href="http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-coping-with-sun-jars.html">add it manually</a> to your repository.
> </li>
> </ul>
> If the problem still persists you may seek help from the Maven user list, or <a href="http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG">log a ticket</a> describing your problem.
