Sometimes, for older Eclipse, like Helios, version 1.5 or 1.4 throws similar error. You can try with 1.3 in that case :

As of late 2011, the M2Eclipse project was donated to the Eclipse foundation by Sonatype and is now called simply M2E. As of the Indigo JEE SR2 release, this plugin can be found in the pre-configured "Indigo" update site contained inside Eclipse, so you don't have to add any new update site.

To install, do the following:

  • Launch Eclipse; select the Help->Install New Software menu item.
  • Select the "Indigo" update site and wait for the software choices to pop up in the table in the lower portion of this "Install" dialog (it can take up to a minute).
  • In the table, select "General Purpose Tools" and then "M2E - Maven Integration for Eclipse", click Next and finish the installation of the plugin.
  • Restart Eclipse as directed.
