"Plugin not found in any plugin repository"

[koppor]

I am trying to invoke the plugin using following command line:

mvn org.eclipse.dash:license-tool-maven:license-check -Ddash.summary=DEPENDENCIES

(Source: https://blog.waynebeaton.ca/posts/ip/dash-license-tool-maven-plugin/)

Then, I get:

[ERROR] Error resolving version for plugin 'org.eclipse.dash:license-tool-maven' from the repositories [local (C:\Users\olive\.m2\repository), google-maven-central (https://maven-central.storage-download.googleapis.com/maven2/)]: Plugin not found in any plugin repository -> [Help 1]

I executed the plugin the root of https://github.com/eclipse/winery/. I checked pom.xml and don't see anything "special".

The Dash License Tool is not in Maven Central. Either you need to install it locally, or you must include the pluginRepository as described in the documentation.

<pluginRepositories>
	<pluginRepository>
		<id>dash-licenses-snapshots</id>
		<url>https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/dash-licenses-snapshots/</url>
		<snapshots>
			<enabled>true</enabled>
		</snapshots>
	</pluginRepository>
	...
</pluginRepositories>

I'll update the blog post.

I think, I need to use some other repo.

In the directory https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/dash-licenses-snapshots/org/eclipse/dash/license-tool-plugin/, there is no version 1.0.2

[ERROR] Plugin org.eclipse.dash:license-tool-plugin:1.0.2 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: The following artifacts could not be resolved: org.eclipse.dash:license-tool-plugin:jar:1.0.2 (absent): org.eclipse.dash:license-tool-plugin:jar:1.0.2 was not found in https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/dash-licenses-snapshots/ during a previous attempt. This failure was cached in the local repository and resolution is not reattempted until the update interval of dash-licenses-snapshots has elapsed or updates are forced -> [Help 1]

OK, this is OK, since copy and paste from old blog posts mostly doesn't work. <version>1.1.1-SNAPSHOT</version> works though.
