No output to the Maven console in Eclipse

Somehow I do not get any log messages anymore in the Maven / m2e console view in Eclipse. This makes it difficult to see what Maven / m2e is doing.

The first thing you should check is that you have the m2e - slf4j over logback logging plugin installed via by checking the Plugins tab in the About Eclipse dialog.

If the plugin is not there, you can install it via Help -> Install New Software, set Work with to --All Available Sites--, search for m2e logback or locate it manually in the category Maven Integration for Eclipse.

If this is already installed, then the problem is probably that another plugin has also installed an SLF4J backend. In this case, you can "hack" your Eclipse's plugin configuration to remove the second backend:

  • Close Eclipse
  • Open the file configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info
  • Remove the line starting with org.slf4j.impl.log4j12
  • Start Eclipse again

If you are on OS X, the is located inside the Eclipse.app bundle in the folder Contents/Eclipse. On other systems, the configuration should be a subfolder of your Eclipse directory.
