STS 2.3.3 M2 dependency problem

[ChristianM]

Thanks for releasing the new version!

I tried to create a roo project and stumbled upon this error:

17.07.10 03:29:51 MESZ: Build errors for hello; org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:aspectj-maven-plugin:1.0:compile (default) on project hello: Execution default of goal org.codehaus.mojo:aspectj-maven-plugin:1.0:compile failed: Plugin org.codehaus.mojo:aspectj-maven-plugin:1.0 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: Missing:
----------
1) org.aspectj:aspectjtools:jar:1.6.10.M1

  Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

  Then, install it using the command: 
      mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.aspectj -DartifactId=aspectjtools -Dversion=1.6.10.M1 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file

  Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: 
      mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=org.aspectj -DartifactId=aspectjtools -Dversion=1.6.10.M1 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]

  Path to dependency: 
  	1) org.codehaus.mojo:aspectj-maven-plugin:maven-plugin:1.0
  	2) org.aspectj:aspectjtools:jar:1.6.10.M1

----------
1 required artifact is missing.

for artifact: 
  org.codehaus.mojo:aspectj-maven-plugin:maven-plugin:1.0

from the specified remote repositories:
  central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2, releases=true, snapshots=false)

17.07.10 03:29:50 MESZ: Maven Builder: FULL_BUILD 
17.07.10 03:29:51 MESZ: [WARN] Missing POM for org.aspectj:aspectjtools:jar:1.6.10.M1

I'm new to maven and I didn't find that package on the aspectj homepage.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris

Thanks for reporting this.

I've logged it as https://jira.springsource.org/browse/ROO-1111. It's already fixed and will be in Spring Roo 1.1.0.M3.

The issue is easy to work around by editing your pom.xml. I'd encourage you to review the detailed description in ROO-1111 for why it happens and how to correct it easily.

Thanks a lot! The project compiles just fine now!

The only thing left is this marker:

Classpath entry org.maven.ide.eclipse.MAVEN2_CLASSPATH_CONTAINER will not be exported or published. Runtime ClassNotFoundExceptions may result.

... but I guess I can ignore it, since maven shouldn't be needed at runtime?
