Error Building Maven project when I do maven install

I'm trying to build a Maven Project using Spring Tool Suit from Eclipse and I'm having an error when I do the Maven Install.
First I do the Maven Clean and it works properly but when I do the maven install this error appears:
Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:build-helper-maven-plugin:1.9.1:regex-properties
(set-properties-with-regex) on project qad-webshell-pom:

I had the same issue.
I have restarted Eclipse, then go on the project specific maven module in which you have the error, right click > Maven > Update Project ...
After the Update on the specific module the Maven install worked without any error.

Project build error: Non-resolvable parent POM for

I am new to the world of maven. I am trying to create a dummy spring boot project using Spring Tool Suite in a private company. Whenever I try to create a spring-boot project, I get the following error. Does it have something to do with a private network?? If not, is there any problem with my maven installation? How do I make this run?
Here's the error:
Project build error: Non-resolvable parent POM for
com.example.dummy:dummy-project:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT: Failure to transfer
org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-parent:pom:2.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT
from https://repo.spring.io/snapshot was cached in the local
repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update
interval of spring-snapshots has elapsed or updates are forced.
Original error: Could not transfer artifact
org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-parent:pom:2.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT
from/to spring-snapshots (https://repo.spring.io/snapshot):
repo.spring.io and 'parent.relativePath' points at no local
POM pom.xml /dummy-project line 14 Maven pom Loading Problem

The pom.xml file of your project has a so-called parent pom. That parent-pom is just another pom file which sits on the spring.io server. Maven downloads that pom file and merges its configuration with the configuration of your project's pom.
Therefore, maven needs to have access to https://repo.spring.io/snapshot to download the parent-pom. Since the parent-pom will be cached in your local maven repository, you will only require access to that server once.

Could not calculate build plan at the creation of a maven project

I just created a new maven project, at the creation, I already have an error :

I don't understand why because I haven't touch anything in the pom or anything else.
Do you have an idea ?

Maven tries to download plugins from MavenCentral, but fails. This is usually a network or proxy problem.

From the error message, maybe this repository http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 is unreached for you, you can search for a usable repositroy on the internet.

I replaced Eclipse Kepler 4.3.2 SR2 with java8 patches with Eclipse Photon 4.8.0, and the problem has gone.

Can't create maven project in STS

I can't create new maven project using this IDE Spring Tool Suite.
It show me the following errors
CoreException: Could not calculate build plan: Plugin

dependencies could not be resolved: Failed to read artifact descriptor

enter image description here
the version of my STS is 3.7.1 RELEASE
Could any one please help

I had the exact same problem and since I read somewhere that the error was caused by a cached file, I fixed it by deleting all the files under de .m2 repository folder. The next time I built the project I had to download all the dependencies again but it was worth it.

Maven error : Could not calculate build plan

I am getting the following errors and i do not know why. I have set up my project on multiple environments and Ive never had any issue but recently i have added the project to an environment running Windows 8 with everything set up correctly (e.g. Maven... ) and i seem to be getting this issue

I have looked at this online and have tried numerous different things listed below to try and resolve this issue but none of them seem to work. Just to note i am not using any proxies
Delete .m2 repository, Maven -> Update Project...
Delete all .lastUpdated files, Maven -> Update Project...
Tried selecting "Force Update of Snapshots/Releases" when updating project
Does anyone have any other ideas on what i could try?

In Eclipse, go to Windows > Preferences > Maven > User Settings
In User Settings, fill in the field with the path to settings.xml > %M2_HOME%\conf (or the correct path).

it seems like that your project doesn't install the dependency needed.
Therefore you need to install it yourself.
Download both jar and pom files from the Maven Repository and installing it using the command (better than copying to the folder directly)
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DpomFile=<path-to-pomfile>
and also be sure that you have installed all the necessary repository for the project and cross verify in the .m2/repository folder with the jar files

I had similar error while setting up my project on new VM:
"CoreException: Could not calculate build plan: Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:2.5.1 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: Failed to read artifact descriptor for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:jar:2.5.1: ArtifactResolutionException: Failure to transfer org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:pom:2.5.1 from http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced. Original error: Could not transfer artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:pom:2.5.1 from/to central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2): connect timed out..."
Cause and Fix for this in my case :
I have apache-maven-3.2.5 installed on the system but found that
settings.xml file is missing in .M2 folder under my user name ( C:\Users\MyUserName.m2) hence above error on building the project
Steps to fix:
Step 1: Copy settings.xml from C:\Users\Public.m2 to .m2 folder under my username on the VM ( C:\Users\MyUserName.m2)
Step2: Using CMD run a clean install after navigating to the project to see if issue is fixed and project builds without error
like this :
C:\Selenium_Test_SetupB\WebUatDemo>mvn clean install
