I have googled for an hour looking for a solution. I have a pom containing the plugin as following.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.torque</groupId>
<artifactId>torque-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.3</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>generate-sources-torque</id>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>om</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<targetDatabase>mssql</targetDatabase>
<generateBeans>true</generateBeans>
<objectIsCaching>false</objectIsCaching>
<enableJava5Features>true</enableJava5Features>
<addSaveMethod>false</addSaveMethod>
<subpackageBaseBean>beans</subpackageBaseBean>
<subpackageBean>beans</subpackageBean>
<complexObjectModel>false</complexObjectModel>
<useClasspath>false</useClasspath>
</configuration>
</plugin>
As per the page http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2E_plugin_execution_not_covered, is seems I need to somehow tell m2e to go ahead and "execute" the plugin. The quickfix only has the solutions of ignore, which I do not want, or discover, which there are no connectors for this. This worked fine in previous versions of m2e. How do I get the new version of m2e to behave as the previous one did with this plugin?
