Are you really using Maven 3.0.3 ? Then please update as soon as possible cause for Maven 3.0.4/3.0.5 there had been solved many issues related to the resolution of artifacts regarding local/remote repo and reactor.

> The documentation of the element parent.relativePath in the XSD file seems to be wrong or outdated. It says: 
> "Maven looks for the parent pom first in the reactor of currently building projects, then in this location on the filesystem, then the local repository, and lastly in the remote repo." 
> (Source: http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd)
> But the actual documentation of maven says
> "Maven looks for the parent POM first in this location on the filesystem, then the local repository, and lastly in the remote repo."
> (Source: http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.0.3/maven-model/apidocs/org/apache/maven/model/Parent.html#getRelativePath%28%29)
> I have tested it on my local and I have seen the behavior as described in the second source, i.e. maven does not look for the parent pom in the reactor of currently building projects first.
> So this is pretty misleading. It is even more true for us, as we are reading the documentation directly from eclipse, which loads it from the XSD file.
> Could you please correct the XSD documentation?
