Project不会识别任何maven依赖项

Question

I get the following error when I maven install my Project :

These dependencies are all included in my pom.xml . Any idea of how to solve this? I have tried adding a settings.xml, but in vain. Settings.xml :

<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0
                      https://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
  <localRepository>C:\Users\abc\.m2\repository</localRepository>
  <interactiveMode/>
  <usePluginRegistry/>
  <offline/>
  <pluginGroups/>
  <servers/>
  <mirrors/>
  <proxies/>
  <profiles/>
  <activeProfiles/>

Please help, I am stuck.

You need to configure your settings.xml to point towards one or more repositories that host the artifacts that you're looking for. They will be downloaded into your local repository. For example:

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>central</id>
        <activation>
           <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
        </activation>
        <repositories>
            <repository>
                <id>central</id>
                <url>http://repo1.maven.org/maven2</url>
                <releases>
                    <enabled>true</enabled>
                </releases>
                <snapshots>
                    <enabled>true</enabled>
                </snapshots>
            </repository>
        </repositories>
        <pluginRepositories>
            <pluginRepository>
                <id>central</id>
                <url>http://repo1.maven.org/maven2</url>
                <releases>
                    <enabled>true</enabled>
                </releases>
                <snapshots>
                    <enabled>true</enabled>
                </snapshots>
            </pluginRepository>
        </pluginRepositories>
    </profile>
</profiles>

I am not sure you can read files of other users on computer. Relocate your maven repository to another path, for example C:/maven_repository and change in your maven settings the local path. This case works for me.
