I also get the same error when using the cxf codegen plugin.
    Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle
      configuration: …
    
    I have pasted my config below.
    
    The problem is that m2eclipse does not generate the code now and so
    my project does not work.
    In the old version of m2eclipse (from sonatype) I could execute
    "update project configuration" which triggered the code generation.
    
    So can I somehow generate the code and configure eclipse for the
    source dirs with the new m2eclipse version from Indigo?
    
    I already thought the old behaviour that "update project
    configuration" was necessary was not ideal and hoped that the new
    version could
    simply work with the cxf code gen. 
    
    I wonder why a lifecycle plugin is necessary. Can´t this simply be
    solved generically. I mean it works when doing mvn eclipse:eclipse
    so why
    should it not work in m2eclipse?

        Just tried out our build
            environment with Indigo and m2e 1.0.0.20110607-2117.
         
        User-experience : 
         
        After a full import of all maven projects,
          I’ve received following error in almost every pom:
         
        Plugin execution not
            covered by lifecycle configuration: …
         
        After clicking around
            for some time, I found under pom.xml / Overview the
            possibility to ignore those «not covered plugin-lifecycles »
