Probably you have the xxx-shared artifact already in your local repository from an earlier invocation, so it won't get looked up in Nexus, while your colleague doesn't.
I think your parent part of the pom should look something like this: <parent> <groupId>xxx.xxx.xxx</groupId> <artifactId>xxx-shared</artifactId> <version>2.0.26-SNAPSHOT</version> <relativePath>../xxx-shared/pom.xml</relativePath> </parent> Try to empty your local repository (~/.m2/repository/xxx/xxx/xxx/ and rebuild. I guess without setting the relativePath you will see the same error as your colleague.
