M2e - slf4j via logback protocol (optional) is missing when connecting the Maven plugin to Mule Studio

Question

I am new to Mule and I have installed Mule Studio 3.5.0 for Windows. When installing the maven plugin from Hep -> Install new software -> m2eclipse update site - http://download.eclipse.org/technolog ... I get the following error.

Cannot complete the installation because one or more of the required items may not be found. Installed software: m2e - slf4j over logback logging (optional) 1.4.0.20130601-0317 (org.eclipse.m2e.logback.feature.feature.group 1.4.0.20130601-0317)

If I understand correctly, Mule is built on top of Eclipse, I could not figure out which version of eclipse is used for Mule Studio 3.5.0. However, I found a similar problem with Indigo 3.6.2, as mentioned here Error: m2e Install In Eclipse

Answer 1

There is a solution in the stream: Error: m2e Install In Eclipse

• First install the slf4j plugin from the update site http://www.fuin.org/p2-repository/
