title: Unable to create Maven project in eclipse
body: <p>Don't know where the problem exactly is.
  When trying to create a Java Maven simple project (war, if that means anything) from scratch in Eclipse Helios (also tried Kepler) I get the messages below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Errors occurred during the build.
  Errors running builder 'Maven Project Builder' on project 'j2eeexample'.
  Could not calculate build plan: Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:2.5 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: Failed to read artifact descriptor for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:jar:2.5

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm using:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>m2e ver. 1.2.0.20120903-1050 (also tried to use the recent one with Kepler - got the same error)</li>
  <li>apache maven ver. 3.0.4 (also tried 3.1.1 with Kepler) with MAVEN_HOME and PATH set.</li>
  <li>jdk 1.7.0_45</li>
  <li><p>OS Windows 7 Pro</p>
  
  <pre><code>mvn --version 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>returns quite a normal result and, I guess, is configured well.</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I did everything the same as mr.Arthur Vin did (including preparations from previous parts of a tutorial) in here: <a href="http://youtu.be/1cHIZTmN0z8?t=4m51s" rel="nofollow">http://youtu.be/1cHIZTmN0z8?t=4m51s</a></p>
  
  <p>But it doesn't work.</p>
