Error creating a simple maven project

[Justintt]

Hi, I am new to Spring Sts,I downloaded the 2.9.2 zipped version for windows OS. I am trying to create a simple maven project
New-> Other -> Maven -> Maven project.

I am getting some errors from the pom file after the project is generated. Can someone help explain to me what i have done wrong or is there some extra setting needed?

I did a search on similar errors and the closest I can get was about firewall and proxy. I am not using any proxy and i have try disable the windows firewall and I am not using other firewall application and it is still getting the same error.

Hey!

Regarding the "plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration", I would recommend to take a look here:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2E_plugin_e...on_not_covered

But that doesn't seem to be the real problem. It looks indeed like a connectivity problem. If you have disabled the Windows firewall already, it could be a JDK 1.7 problem. Can you try to run STS with JDK 1.6 instead to see if that solves the problem?

HTH,
