I am getting following error since today morning while doing maven build. There are no specific changes for yesterday and today. Can someone help me to resolve this? I tried clearing all local repositories, changing jackson version to 1.9.10. Surprisingly this is working for my colleagues who are working on same build.

I was doing some testing using Maven and realized that I can execute the findbugs goal of the Findbugs plugin without adding the plugin to the POM file.

Why Jetty needed configuration in the POM while Findbugs didn't? How does Maven know which Findbugs to execute (suppose we have to plugins with the same name but different group id)? When I run the first command the build is successful without any changes in POM file: mvn findbugs:findbugs [INFO]
