Robert Scholte closed MECLIPSE-600.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix
      Assignee: Robert Scholte

The Apache Maven team has decided to retire the maven-eclipse-plugin, so this issue won't be fixed.

> The {{MojoExecutionException}}s thrown from the catch blocks in EclipsePlugin.writeAdditionalConfig() do not include the caught exception.
> The error message displayed when this occurs indicates that the problem is with the target file, when in fact it may be a problem with the source file:-
> The particular problem I ran into was that the source file path was derived using a property which happened to be undefined (as I was setting up the project without reading the instructions, which said to add that property to my settings.xml config file . . .)
> Having the actual cause available would speed up resolution of problems like this.
> Patch attached.
