How to solve “Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration” for Spring Data Maven Builds

Question

I had this problem today. I was using STS 3.4 with its bundled Roo 1.2.4. Later I tried with Eclipse Kepler and Roo 1.2.5, same error.

I've changed my pom.xml adding pluginTemplates tag after build and before plugins declaration but didn't work.

What made the magic for me:

• Using jdk 1.7.0_51
• Downloaded Roo 1.2.5
• Downloaded Maven 3.2.1 (if not, when executes "perform eclipse" this error appears "error=2, no such file or directory")

• Configured JDK, Roo and Maven bin directories on my PATH:

  export PATH=/opt/jdk1.7.0_51/bin:$PATH export PATH=/opt/spring-roo-1.2.5.RELEASE/bin:$PATH export PATH=/opt/apache-maven-3.2.1/bin:$PATH

Made my configuration as following: (http://docs.spring.io/spring-roo/reference/html/beginning.html)

$ mkdir hello 
$ cd hello
$ roo.sh
roo> project --topLevelPackage com.foo
roo> jpa setup --provider HIBERNATE --database HYPERSONIC_PERSISTENT 
roo> web mvc setup
roo> perform eclipse

Open with Eclipse (nothing of STS, but I guess it works): Import -> Existing Projects into Workspace
