Hello Rolf You have to place the <configuration> element directly inside the <plugin> element. Further pay attention that your plugin element is defined inside "build/pluginManagement/plugins", else (if it is defined inside "build/plugins") checkstyle will be executed on phase "verify" (directly before phase "install") one more time. Due to issue http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1931 config made in pluginManagement will not be directly reused in element <reporting>. You have to copy your configuration for site generation! At best you use <properties> (checkstyle.config.location and so only) to config the checkstyle-plugin without adding a <configuration> section. For an example have a look at http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/el4j/trunk/el4j/pom.xml?view=markup
