This is the exception I'm getting while giving maven install. It occurs for all projects. I'm compiling OSGI-BUNDLES with maven. Changing the settings.xml is also not helping. I can't deploy my bundles in Karaf due to this error. Seems .m2/repository/repository.xml is empty.
Any Mojo Exception that occurs is due to the issue that some jar is not being downloaded properly during mvn install.
Try to delete your .m2 local repository and do a clean build again and see if you face the same problem again.
Also try to check the compatibility of Java verson with the Maven version you are using that can also cause an issue. dependency checking can also some time solve it as you may have forgotten to add the correct dependency in your pom.xml
