I'm having the same problem, even after having read the maven plugin prefix
mapping link. MThe relevant portion of my POM is:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.axis2</groupId>
<artifactId>axis2-aar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.5.1</version>
<configuration>
<goalPrefix>aar</goalPrefix>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Here's the result:
[/Users/dave/projects/gpsdata/webservice] mvn aar:exploded

So even though maven locates the plugin and installs it into the repo, it
cannot find it for use. Obviously I've missed something obvious.
