More progress and I think I figured out why I had to install modules into my own local .m2
I’m using a “settings.xml" file from work that is mirroring all maven central libraries. We are using version 3.33.1-01 and it looks like it doesn’t support “downloadable remote indexing” so Netbeans wasn’t seeing the libraries. The IDE is giving me an error: org.apache.maven.wagon.ResourceDoesNotExistException: Resource missing at https://nexus.mycompany.com/content/groups/public/.index/nexus-maven-repository-index.properties 404 .index/nexus-maven-repository-index.properties java.io.FileNotFoundException: Resource nexus-maven-repository-index.properties does not exist So, the IDE isn’t updating it’s indexes. I saw this post and even a comment from Jesse Glick about his surprise and saying Netbeans Maven won’t be able to work properly. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41467162/how-to-download-remote-index-in-nexus-oss-3-2 <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41467162/how-to-download-remote-index-in-nexus-oss-3-2> Hope this helps others.. - Tim > On Sep 25, 2021, at 4:52 PM, Tim Mullé <tmu...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I made some progress..I started over following the following links and now > have an application that recognizes my custom project. > > https://dzone.com/articles/how-create-maven-nb-project-type > <https://dzone.com/articles/how-create-maven-nb-project-type> > https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorials/nbm-projecttype.html > <https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorials/nbm-projecttype.html> > > I did have to manually add a jar file to my local repo in order to get it to > work however. > Just following the instructions as is didn’t work because I got the error: > >> Some tokens required by included modules are not provided by included >> modules.
