You may choose to enter the public snapshot repo below or to enter your own repo that hosts the NPanday VS installer. +----+ apache.snapshots true org.apache Maven Snapshots http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository false true org.apache Maven Plugin Snapshots http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository false true +----+ Due to a bug in Maven, if you are remotely resolving a plugin that doesn't exist in central, you will need to install from a directory containing a pom.xml file. So if you have a pom.xml handy, goto that directory from the command line. If not, you will need to download the {{{./pom.xml}pom.xml}} and goto to the download directory from the command line. Now type the following from the command line: +----+ mvn npanday.plugin:maven-vsinstaller-plugin:install +----+ This will download the plugin and all of its dependencies.
