I have been trying to create a maven project in eclipse photon.I also tried checking proxy settings,linked a "settings.xml" file in user settings,linked a "catalog.xml" under archetype.But it didn't worked.Eclipse is configured with java 8 version.I am unable to upload photos so i will describe. These are the steps I followed while creating Maven project. File->New->other->Maven->Maven Project->Next->Next->Selected Archetype-quickstart1.1->Next->provided Artifact and Group Id and Finish. Here I'm getting could not resolve archetype error.

  • Specify "it didn't worked". Some error message / you can't find the maven project option / ... ? – T A Aug 31 '18 at 11:45
  • sorry,I didn't get you.can you please make it some more clearer. – Maneesha Shetty Aug 31 '18 at 11:49
  • I am asking you to elaborate your post and specify your question. "It didn't work" is not very helpful for identifying the problem and no one will be able to answer your question this way. – T A Aug 31 '18 at 11:55
  • What steps did you take? _File > New > Other...: Maven > Maven Project_ and then? – howlger Sep 01 '18 at 10:44

It's not very clear the issue you are facing and how you are creating the maven project. Eclipse comes with a great in built maven support. It's not necessary to configure settings.xml unless you are using your own repository instead of the default repository .m2

However assuming that you have installed Eclipse Photon correctly. Here are the steps involved in creation of simple maven project.

Click on File-->New-->Others. On the new window look for maven and click on Maven Project. This will launch new window **New Maven Project*. If you don't want to select available archetypes, then click on the checkbox named "Create Simple Project(Skip Archetype Selection)" and click on next. Fill in your project details and click on finish. That's it. Eclipse will generate a fresh maven project for you.

The other configurations are required based on the type of project you are creating. Hope this helps !!!

  • I did it in the same way.I have chosen maven-archetype-quickstart version 1.1. – Maneesha Shetty Aug 31 '18 at 12:49
  • Can you please post the error or issue you are facing ? – Aman Verma Aug 31 '18 at 12:55
  • could not resolve archetype from any of org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-quickstart:1.1 configured properties – Maneesha Shetty Sep 04 '18 at 10:31
  • It seems you're missing catalog.xml file. Get it from http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/archetype-catalog.xml and add it into eclipse.

  • I have added it.But it is still throwing the same problem – Maneesha Shetty Sep 04 '18 at 12:19
  • Can you edit your question with the steps you are following. Also include the exact step on which the error occurred. Include screenshots, if necessary. – Aman Verma Sep 04 '18 at 12:24
