[m2e-users] java.lang.AssertionError: Can read global settings.xml ?

[Cristiano Gavião <cvgaviao@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Suddenly I start to receive a strange error when trying to run a maven plugin build with the m2e launcher (1.7.0.20151215-0013) inside the workspace (eclipse mars).

I'm getting the following exception for every maven plugin test :

java.lang.AssertionError: Can read global settings.xml

It is occurring in a sentence like this one below:

        MavenProject project = incrementalBuildRule.readMavenProject(
                testResources.getBasedir("ut--valid-project"));

The m2e 'User Settings' doesn't have a 'Global Settings' path defined, but it has the 'User Settings' path.

But it is not happen when running the same build at SO.

Anyone knows anything about such error ?

thanks,

Cristiano
