Eclipse Installation Error - Maven

Question

I am trying to install Maven Plugin for Eclipse, but I am getting this error.

I use

Eclipse Java EE IDE for web developers. Version: Indigo Release Build id: 20110615-0604 Eclipse version.

Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency. Software being installed: m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.eclipse.m2e.feature.feature.group 1.0.100.20110804-1717) Software currently installed: Maven Integration for Eclipse (Required) 0.12.1.20110112-1712 (org.maven.ide.eclipse.feature.feature.group 0.12.1.20110112-1712) Only one of the following can be installed at once: Maven Integration for Eclipse 0.12.1.20110112-1712 (org.maven.ide.eclipse 0.12.1.20110112-1712) This version of m2eclipse cannot be installed on top of the already installed m2eclipse. Uninstall the previous version of m2eclipse and try the install again. 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.maven.ide.eclipse 1.0.100.20110804-1717) Cannot satisfy dependency: From: m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.eclipse.m2e.feature.feature.group 1.0.100.20110804-1717) To: bundle org.maven.ide.eclipse [1.0.100.20110804-1717] Cannot satisfy dependency: From: Maven Integration for Eclipse (Required) 0.12.1.20110112-1712 (org.maven.ide.eclipse.feature.feature.group 0.12.1.20110112-1712) To: org.maven.ide.eclipse [0.12.1.20110112-1712]

Answer 1

You should simply uninstall m2eclipse version 0.12.x and retry the installation. You are essentially trying to install both m2e and m2eclipse (read: old m2e) together.

My versions of Eclipse JDT and m2e:

 Eclipse Java Development Tools 3.7.0.v20110520-0800 m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.0.0.20110607-2117
