I am having problem doing a build on a new project. The build works for the old devs on the project, but after cloning the projects and using the same version of maven. Its not working for me.

Initially, I was doing a mvn clean install

But, after some research I found out the same build error occured with a simple mvn clean.

The error is as follows:

C:\workspace\some-web-app>mvn clean

I'v added the latest version for the dependencies in the POM to hack d 7 errors related to "'dependencies.dependency.version' ". But, my colleagues did not have to add the version to theirs'. So, my hack is not acceptable! The dependency have a scope of 'provided' and should be provided by the container. After research, I learned the dependencies should be downloaded into my .m2 (local repo) for local build, but they should not be packaged into the final artefact during buld.

Also, the second issue which is still unresolved is the "Non-resolvable import POM: Could not transfer artifact". I am thinking its a proxy issue, but my colleagues reckon using my mobile hot spot should work. Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.

Any ideas what could possibly be the problem?
