Re: [m2e-users] where is settings.xml? 
There are no plans to change this. Most m2e users run command line
builds as far as I know and expect both environments to use the same
network configuration. As a historical reference, m2e used to use
eclipse network configuration several years ago and we had many
complains about that.

Hi Igor,

I think intuitive for the network config will be to use the eclipse
network settings. AFAIK all / most of the plugins are doing this. For
the rest of the options in settings.xml, well that's the purpose of the
settings.xml - I agree that this is the right place. May be it will be
helpful, if after the installation or throughout the installation there
is some option to select settings.xml. This can be used by packaging /
scripting tools, used for centralized corporate installations (as it is
the case here).

    m2e uses proxy configuration from settings.xml, same as maven on command
    line. I believe in most cases the same system will be used to run both
    m2e and command line builds, so use of the same configuration file is
    the only option to keep the two builds consistent. I am not sure if
    there is a good solution for your case, but I am open for ideas (and no,
    new workspace preference is not a good solution).

        Hi Igor,

        we have to config proxy and these are the only settings set in
        settings.xml - how it is supposed to correctly handle this
        situation?
        Manually copy settings.xml was the only remedy for us, but this is
        somehow ugly, especially on several installations. Perhaps it is
        possible to use the network settings as set in RAD / Eclipse?
        Just to correct myself - build loop was wrong - the process hung on
        accessing the central maven repo and after we copied the
        settings.xml to
        the default location the build went further.

        TIA,
        Ilko

             settings.xml is optional. When this configuration file is

             m2e (or maven for that matter) will use default values for
        location of
             local repository, http proxies and other settings.xml
        parameters.

             Endless build loops usually mean either workspace got out
        of sync with
             local filesystem or incompatible maven plugins are forced
        in m2e
             workspace build.

                 Hi,

                 perhaps a stupid question, but I have the dead lock
        situation
                 with m2e
                 and RAD 8.5 and I assume the problem is that there is no
                 settings.xml
                 file on the machine, because it does not have apache
        maven installed
                 onto it. So in the preferences there is a warning "Missing
                 settings.xml", which is correct, however the build
        process goes
                 into a
                 never ending loop, trying to access the maven repo
        causing the
                 RAD to
                 crash completely. My question is, if there is settings.xml
                 generated /
                 installed with the installation of the m2e plugin and
        if yes
                 where could
                 I find it / why it is not set as default from the
        installation
                 procedure? I haven't found some prerequirements on the
        plugin
                 page that
                 maven installation is needed on the machine - as far as
        I can
                 remember
                 somewhere is a statement "you don't need local maven
                 installation with
                 the plugin because the internal will be used" - or
        something
                 similar.

                 TIA,
                 Ilko
