I am getting errors running ‘Build the plugin by running mvn install from the project directory’.

[ERROR] [ERROR] Some problems were encountered while processing the POMs:

Hi,

Welcome to the community and thanks for this report!

Could you point me to the sample project you’re trying to build?

 
Thx,
Ann

Hi,

I was looking for a URL. Thankfully, that was included in your screenshot. This repo hasn’t had any meaningful maintenance in 2 years, so I suppose it’s not surprising it doesn’t compile. I’ve flagged this for the team.

I created my own package with 2 rules and then ran ‘mvn clean’,‘mvn clean package’ and ‘mvn install’. I got the same error message all 3 times. I think it is the POM file I copied from the Sonar pkg.

I am unable to upload the VSCODE screen. Tried several times.

Line 1/2 and line 7 of the pom.xml file have error messages

Line 1/2

4.0.0

This is what AI said

This is not a code or POM problem, but a Java SSL trust/certificate issue. Fix your Java truststore or proxy settings and Maven will resolve dependencies normally.
