mvn Deployment failed: repository element was not specified in the POM - maven

When I run mvn clean deploy on my project I get an error
Also my project in eclipse displays the following errors which I don't know if they are related to my current problem.
Project configuration not up-to-date with pom.xml
plugin configuration not covered by lifecycle configuration
In addition my eclipse doesn't seems to compile the files correctly. My SpringBoot java files aren't being compiled as java files. I can tell because if I deliberately induce syntax errors, there isn't a compilation error. This is all run on eclipse EE and is part of a maven project so I don't even know if a source folder is needed.
Also I'm displaying my main pom.xml file below and it has compilation errors on "pom" and both "&ndash"
I've tried the following solutions

mvn deploy will deploy the produced artifact to a Maven Repository.
To do so it needs the configuration to which repository it must be deployed and this is missing.
But I assume that you don't want to deploy it to a repository but just build it.
That's mvn install This will install it in your local repository.
Maybe you should start with reading the docs: https://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html

Call hierachy of properties in pom.xml

I have a maven project with multiple nested projects. All of them do always have the same version. Untill now, if I want to increase the version, I went through all pom.xml files and changed the version number.
Now, I wanted to outsource the version to the properties tag of the parent pom.xml file. It works, for all nested projects, but not for the parent pom itself.
In which order are the attributes in the pom.xml called? I can not reference
the project version in the parent pom.xml file.
The code snippet shows the parent pom.xml
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<groupId>com.my.project</groupId>
<artifactId>my.project</artifactId>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<version>${projectVersion}</version>
<properties>
<projectVersion>1.0.0</projectVersion>
...
</properties>
<modules>
<module>my.project.service</module>
<module>my.project.db</module>
...
</modules>
I expect the pom to take the version number defined in the properties. But it failes building with the error invalid reference format
I expect the pom to take the version number defined in the properties.
But it failes building with the error invalid reference format
By running a maven goal from the parent project, maven first binds the artifact/group/version in the current build process, so it uses the version defined here :
<version>${projectVersion}</version>
I can not reference the project version in the parent pom.xml file.
In this case, you could "cheat" by creating an aggregator/multimodule project that defines a not used/fake version (1.0-NOT-USED for example) that has as unique module the parent pom. When you build the aggregator/multimodule project, you can now pass as parameter the version to use in the parent project and all its modules.
As a side note, to use a central version for a set of projects, you should use the flatten maven plugin that relieves you from the hell version management.

Issue in adding third party dependency in Maven during Jenkins build - ODM

I am trying to build ODM projects outside of eclipse using the Jenkins pipeline and Maven plugin. I am following the link : https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSQP76_8.9.0/com.ibm.odm.dserver.rules.designer.run/build_topics/con_buildcmd_intro.html
Though this link works well without the Jenkins pipeline in my local(Windows), but when I try to run the same setup in Jenkins(Linux machine), I am getting the following error :

Please let me know if anyone has faced a similar issue or has a possible resolution to the above issue.
Thanks in advance.
Possible resolution: "install the Build Command Maven plugin and its related Operational Decision Manager artifacts in your Maven repository" ... "on each machine that contains build agents"
To deploy the Build Command Maven plugin to a remote Maven repository, you must configure Maven in your environment. You then use the following command: mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=rules-compiler-maven-plugin.jar -DpomFile=rules-compiler-maven-plugin.pom
This requires access to the Jenkins / Maven server, and at many companies would be done by DevOps.
You install the Build Command Maven plugin and its related Operational Decision Manager artifacts in your Maven repository.
Deploying the Build Command plugin
You deploy the plugin only once on each machine that contains build agents.
To deploy the Build Command Maven plugin to a remote Maven repository, you must first configure Maven in your environment.
Then, in <InstallDir>/buildcommand/rules-compiler, open a command prompt.
Use the following command:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=rules-compiler.jar -DpomFile=rules-compiler-maven-plugin.pom
If you do not have a remote repository, you can test the plugin locally. You run the following command:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=rules-compiler.jar -DpomFile=rules-compiler-maven-plugin.pom
This command adds the following plugin in your local Maven repository:
com/ibm/rules/buildcommand/rules-compiler
 Deploying the annotations archive
If you want to build COBOL projects or projects that use XOM annotations, you must also deploy the annotations archive to your environment before you can build the projects.
In <InstallDir>/buildcommand/rules-compiler, open a command prompt.
Use the following command:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=rules-compiler.jar -DpomFile=xom-annotations.pom
If you do not have a remote repository, you can test the plugin locally. You run the following command:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=rules-compiler.jar -DpomFile=xom-annotations.pom
This command adds the following plugin in your local Maven repository:
com/ibm/rules/buildcommand/xom-annotation

Maven version error during build

I get the following error when I am trying to build my project
Failed to execute goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-packaging-plugin:0.25.0:validate-version (default-validate-version) on project com.google.guice: Maven version 8.0.0.qualifier must have -SNAPSHOT qualifier for SNAPSHOT builds -> [Help 1]
I am not using release plugin for my build. I haven't seen this error before and not very certain about its meaning. All I am doing is changing version from in my pom from "-SNAPSHOT" to ".qualifier". Can someone help me understand what I am doing wrong? As far as I can tell I am not doing anything different from previous times I've build release version of my projects.
Here is my pom file:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

Packaging for reactor multi module build?

I suppose I've made something wrong failing to find answer for basic philosophical question:
What is the correct packaging for reactor build module for multi module maven project?
I'm using pom but I don't feel it's correct since the pom artifact is used by no one:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.example.project</groupId>
<artifactId>reactor-build</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<modules>
<module>../config</module>
<module>../module1</module>
<module>../module2</module>
</modules>
</project>
The packaging pom is the only allowed packaging for aggregator projects, that is to say a project with modules like the one you have, and also for parent projects. From Inheritance:
The packaging type required to be pom for parent and aggregation (multi-module) projects.
Any attempt to use a different packaging will result in an error when trying to build the project, such as the following when using jar (or keeping the default):
[ERROR] 'packaging' with value 'jar' is invalid. Aggregator projects require 'pom' as packaging.

Why Maven is looking for .pom file when .jar is present in the repository?

I have the following dependency in my pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>aGroup</groupId>
<artifactId>anArtifact</artifactId>
<version>aVersion</version>
</dependency>
I also have the anArtifact-aVersion.jar file in ~/.m2/repository/aGroup/anArtifact/aVersion directory.
When I start building the project, maven looks for a .pom file instead of using the .jar file and attempts to download the following
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/aGroup/anArtifact/aVersion/anArtifact-aVersion.pom
How can I configure maven to use the existing .jar file?
Every jar needs to have a pom file describing it, you can just add something simple like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>aGroup</groupId>
<artifactId>aArtifactId</artifactId>
<version>aVersion</version>
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<name>a Name</name>
</project>
Run your build using the "-o" switch to use Maven in offline mode. In offline mode, Maven will not check for updates of snapshot dependencies in remote repositories.
the best way to install an artifact to the local repository which were not built by Maven ist to use
mvn install:install-file ...
have a look at the install:install goal.
POM that is installed to nexus will describe the jar. Used to pull the dependencies that are associated to corresponding jar. When we add the jar as dependency to our project, all the jars required for the included jar will be identified through the corresponding pom.
It is looking for the pom to, among other things, resolve the transitive dependencies.
