After upgrading to 9M2 version I started getting problem with my maven builds. I can’t run the builds by right clicking on pom. The exception is

Source locator does not exist: org.maven.ide.eclipse.launching.MavenSourceLocator

The pop up box says ‘Launching Executing clean in ‘—–‘ has encountered a problem followed by the above exception. Please help

— Already tried to create a new workspace and the problem persist.
–I am able to do my builds successfully from command prompts.

Ritesh,

1) Could you please paste your .classpath, .project and pom.xml files here please? (or mail them to support@genuitec.com ATTN Brian with a link to this thread)
2) Could you also include the entire stack trace of the error when you are unable to launch? You can find this in the Error Log.

Thanks.

Threre is nothing special in pom file. All my pom files are failing. The above exact configuration use to work fine with my previous version which was I think 9M1. I also tried reinstalling the whole thing but got same exact problem.

Here is the log
!ENTRY org.eclipse.debug.core 4 5013 2011-02-09 05:13:22.833

Ritesh,

Thanks for sending us the sample project; we were, however, unable to replicate the problem even with this project.

1) If you go to Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Maven4MyEclipse > Maven, is the Maven JDK combo correctly set to point to a JDK?

2) On your sample project, are you executing any specific goal? Can you suggest one specific goal so we can both test with the same?

3) Once you execute your build – can you go to Run > Run Configurations and select the configuration you are trying to run from the left hand side. In the tabs, select the “Common” tab and select “Shared file” – specify a convenient path and attempt to Run. This will create a lauch configuration file in the path specified, can you send us that file too?

JDK is pointing to my workspace jdk correctly.
I am running clean as its simplest. All of them fail though with same error message.
Attaching the profile as requested. I am running same project which I send you yesterday.

I am able to get the problem solved by installing the myeclipse directly on my x64 machine from your website. I was not able to get it to work by installing the 9M2 via pulse x64 so this might be a bug or configuration issue. Please verify.

I am up and running so I am going to stand here.
