We ran into a problem with Eclipse Indigo and the new M2E plugin to support Maven.
I installed on the same machine: the Maven 3.04 command line with a patch for the NTLM proxy. It works perfectly and seamlessly.
Then I installed Eclipse Indigo with M2E. I can choose an alternative Maven installation (embedded version 3.02), but m2e does not use a proxy server and not the selected maven installation to manage permissions and plugins. This is also confirmed in other web results that I found.
Maven's internal installation does not work, even when I use the system proxy (CNTLM). I suspect because it uses its own proxy settings, and I did not fix it for NTLM.
My question is, how can I fix the embedded Maven with the same NTLM patch that I used to make Maven 3.04 easier to use?
My patch for Maven 3.04: put: wagon-http-lightweight-2.2.jar in ext dir in the maven lib directory.
