In my experience, a missing plugin dependency is the usual cause of the
'Unable to find plugin' message. Look at your <workspace>/.metedata/.log
file. If there are missing dependencies, they will be listed there.
(The .metadata/.log file often has useful information that is not in the
build log, so that is always the first place I look when a build fails.)
