maven-javadoc-plugin and failsafe-maven-plugin missing when build JBoss Seam examples

Question

I'm trying to build JBoss Seam examples using Maven 3.0.4 but I'm getting missing plugin errors:

juliano.schroeder remoting-helloworld $ mvn jboss-as:deploy

Anyone knows why that happens or what can be done to fix it? Thanks.

As per doc says, you should declare a plugin section in build one, in your pom.xml if you want to use it as a command :

<project>
  ...
  <build>
    <!-- To define the plugin version in your parent POM -->
    <pluginManagement>
      <plugins>
        <plugin>
          <groupId>org.jboss.as.plugins</groupId>
          <artifactId>jboss-as-maven-plugin</artifactId>
          <version>7.2</version> <!-- or whatever you want -->
        </plugin>
        ...
      </plugins>
    </pluginManagement>
    <!-- To use the plugin goals in your POM or parent POM -->
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
          <groupId>org.jboss.as.plugins</groupId>
          <artifactId>jboss-as-maven-plugin</artifactId>
          <version>7.2</version> <!-- or whatever you want -->
        </plugin>
      ...
    </plugins>
  </build>
  ...
</project>

The "old" maven-jboss-plugin don't need it because its group is org.codehaus.mojo. But jboss-as one depends on org.jboss.as.plugins.

*EDIT 1 * :

You may find some examples here : deploy jboss sar at jboss as 7 error

You may ommit this plugin if you configure it into settings.xml : http://maven.apache.org/settings.html#Plugin_Groups

*EDIT 2 * :

You may also add the good pluginRepository

<pluginRepositories>
    <pluginRepository>
        <id>jboss-public-repository-group</id>
        <name>JBoss Public Maven Repository Group</name>
        <url>https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public-jboss/</url>
    </pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>

Thnanks! It worked. Where can i see that jboss-as plugin depends on org.jboss.as.plugins? — JSeven, Sep 26 '12 at 13:58
Glad to help you :). You can find it here : http://docs.jboss.org/jbossas/7/plugins/maven/latest/examples/deployment-example.html ... but I just googled maven+jboss-as+plugin : http://www.google.fr/search?q=maven+jboss-as+plugin — Jean-Rémy Revy, Sep 26 '12 at 14:00
