Maven won't run my Project : Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2.1:exec

Question

I can\'t run the Maven Netbeans JavaFX example :

Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2.1:exe         


        

Answer 1

1. This error would spring up arbitrarily and caused quite a bit of trouble though the code on my end was solid.

I did the following :

• I closed it on netbeans.
• Then open the project by clicking "Open Project", selecting my project and
• Simply hit the run button in netbeans.

I would not build or clean build it. Hope that helps you out.

2. I noticed another reason why this happens. If you moved your main class to another package, the same error springs up. In that case you :
   • Right Click Project > Properties > Run
   • Set the "Main Class" correctly by clicking "Browse" and selecting.
