I'm trying to follow Red Hat JBoss Fuse-6.3 Developer Guide. I added everything to the Windows: Documents and Settings\User\.m2\settings.xml (which didnt exist) as per the document.
The build command I'm using is
C:\Apps\apache-maven-3.5.0\bin\mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=io.fabric8.archetypes -DarchetypeArtifactId=karaf-soap-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.2.0.redhat-630187 -DgroupId=org.fusesource.example -DartifactId=cxf-basic -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -Dfabric8-profile=cxf-basic-profile
I'm now getting this error:

I do see that archetype exists.
Googling around for archetype does not exist (io.fabric8.archetypes:karaf-soap-archetype:1.2.0.redhat-630187 and yes! It's one of those 0 results found!
The key turned out to be this
[INFO] Archetype repository not defined. Using the one from [io.fabric8.archetypes:karaf-soap-archetype:1.2.0.redhat-133] found in catalog remote
[WARNING] The POM for io.fabric8.archetypes:karaf-soap-archetype:jar:1.2.0.redhat-630187 is missing, no dependency information available
And me being a bit of a newb with Maven - I didnt understand it first. I then googled a bit more for settings.xml - I then found mention of a settings.xml also contained in C:\Apps\apache-maven-3.5.0\conf
I added the Red Hat repositories to that file instead (as it was completely empty) and everything now builds properly. Hopefully this might help someone else figure out a similar problem faster than I did whether it's with regards to jboss fuse or maven not being correctly setup,
