Maven:Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plug

Question

I am building my project using Maven. My maven version is apache-maven-3.0.4. I am using Eclipse Luna. When I try to build my project I get the following error

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:2.7:resources (default-resources) on project OrionCommunity: Mark invalid -> [Help 1].

Following is the stack trace when I run mvn clean install -X:

My maven repository is under D:/mavenrepo. I have completely deleted all the jars present in the repo and did a clean install. But I still get this error.

Answer 1

in my case, it was a confilict with IntelliJ , I've resolved it by building the project from command line and it worked!

Answer 2

I faced the same problem and did the filtering false like below working for me. You can try the same...

<testResources>
    <testResource>
        <directory>src/test/java</directory>
        <filtering>false</filtering>
    </testResource>
    <testResource>
        <directory>src/test/resources</directory>
        <filtering>false</filtering>
    </testResource>
</testResources>
