Or use the mvn -U option when running the plugin.

Hmm, that seems like the wrong version of the archetype plugin. I don’t know how that happened. I have 2.0-alpha-4, while you have 1.0-alpha-7. Look and see what you have under the following directory:

~\.m2\repository\org\apache\maven\archetype\archetype-common\

Try wiping out that directory and see what happens. If not, try wiping out your entire local repository and let it download everything from scratch.

If that doesn’t work, you should probably post the the Apache forums (or on JavaRanch). I’ll still look at it, but its a better place to get support since there will be more eyes on it, and someone may have encountered this before.

I never really used maven seriously. But I tried it and came with the following issues:
