Re: [m2e-users] webby: Could not locate configuration for maven-war-plugin

which is quite correct, because I've blown away the target directory
more than a few times while tweaking module packaging. I'd expect to
Webby to re-create this directory behind the scenes and not bail out
like this.

Yes, that's a sane assumption and this is how Webby generally works. Considering that you have also installed/experimented with m2e-wtp, to me the question is: Does Webby still run at all on your project? For instance, if after a refresh-clean-build cycle on the web project, no target/m2e-webby/war directory shows up at all, that would be a clear indication that Webby, or at least its build relevant part, has been taken out of the game.

By their nature, m2e-webby and m2e-wtp both report to m2e-core that they handle the maven-war-plugin. I currently can't tell what exactly is supposed to happen if two m2e extensions conflict like this.
