Hi Jerome ,
Thank you for your reply.. Is there any problem if we are not using
any git? and i couldnt find any reason in settings.xml which prevents
maven from downloading external POM file.. I am very new to Jenkins.
I will copy my settings.xml in maven.. Please check it and tell me if
i need to change anything.

| This is the configuration file for Maven. It can be specified at
two levels:
|
| 1. User Level. This settings.xml file provides configuration for a
single user,
| and is normally provided in ${user.home}/.m2/
settings.xml.
|
| NOTE: This location can be overridden with the CLI
option:
|
| -s /path/to/user/settings.xml
|
| 2. Global Level. This settings.xml file provides configuration for
all Maven
| users on a machine (assuming they're all using the
same Maven
| installation). It's normally provided in
| ${maven.home}/conf/settings.xml.
|
| NOTE: This location can be overridden with the CLI
option:
|
| -gs /path/to/global/settings.xml
|
| The sections in this sample file are intended to give you a running
start at
| getting the most out of your Maven installation. Where appropriate,
the default
| values (values used when the setting is not specified) are
provided.

<!-- localRepository
| The path to the local repository maven will use to store
artifacts.
|
| Default: ~/.m2/repository
<localRepository>/path/to/local/repo</localRepository>
-->
<!-- interactiveMode
| This will determine whether maven prompts you when it needs

other setting, for
| the parameter in question.

<!-- offline
| Determines whether maven should attempt to connect to the network
when executing a build.
| This will have an effect on artifact downloads, artifact
deployment, and others.
|
| Default: false

-->
<!-- pluginGroups
| This is a list of additional group identifiers that will be
searched when resolving plugins by their prefix, i.e.
| when invoking a command line like "mvn prefix:goal". Maven will
automatically add the group identifiers
| "org.apache.maven.plugins" and "org.codehaus.mojo" if these are
not already contained in the list.

<!-- pluginGroup
| Specifies a further group identifier to use for plugin lookup.

<!-- proxies
| This is a list of proxies which can be used on this machine to
connect to the network.
| Unless otherwise specified (by system property or command-line
switch), the first proxy
| specification in this list marked as active will be used.

<proxies>

<!-- servers
| This is a list of authentication profiles, keyed by the server-id
used within the system.
| Authentication profiles can be used whenever maven must make a
connection to a remote server.
|-->
<servers>
<!-- server
| Specifies the authentication information to use when connecting
to a particular server, identified by
| a unique name within the system (referred to by the 'id'
attribute below).
|
| NOTE: You should either specify username/password OR privateKey/
passphrase, since these pairings are
| used together.
|
<server>
<id>deploymentRepo</id>
<username>repouser</username>
<password>repopwd</password>

<!-- mirrors
| This is a list of mirrors to be used in downloading artifacts
from remote repositories.
|
| It works like this: a POM may declare a repository to use in
resolving certain artifacts.
| However, this repository may have problems with heavy traffic at
times, so people have mirrored
| it to several places.
|
| That repository definition will have a unique id, so we can
create a mirror reference for that
| repository, to be used as an alternate download site. The mirror
site will be the preferred
| server for that repository.
|-->
<mirrors>
<!-- mirror
| Specifies a repository mirror site to use instead of a given
repository. The repository that
| this mirror serves has an ID that matches the mirrorOf element
of this mirror. IDs are used
| for inheritance and direct lookup purposes, and must be unique
across the set of mirrors.
|
<mirror>
<id>mirrorId</id>
<mirrorOf>repositoryId</mirrorOf>
<name>Human Readable Name for this Mirror.</name>
<url>
http://my.repository.com/repo/path</url>
</mirror>
-->
</mirrors>
<!-- profiles
| This is a list of profiles which can be activated in a variety of
ways, and which can modify
| the build process. Profiles provided in the settings.xml are
intended to provide local machine-
| specific paths and repository locations which allow the build to
work in the local environment.
|
| For example, if you have an integration testing plugin - like
cactus - that needs to know where
| your Tomcat instance is installed, you can provide a variable
here such that the variable is
| dereferenced during the build process to configure the cactus
plugin.
|
| As noted above, profiles can be activated in a variety of ways.
One way - the activeProfiles
| section of this document (settings.xml) - will be discussed
later. Another way essentially
| relies on the detection of a system property, either matching a
particular value for the property,
| or merely testing its existence. Profiles can also be activated
by JDK version prefix, where a
| value of '1.4' might activate a profile when the build is
executed on a JDK version of '1.4.2_07'.
| Finally, the list of active profiles can be specified directly
from the command line.
|
| NOTE: For profiles defined in the settings.xml, you are
restricted to specifying only artifact
| repositories, plugin repositories, and free-form properties
to be used as configuration
| variables for plugins in the POM.
|
|-->
<profiles>
<!-- profile
| Specifies a set of introductions to the build process, to be
activated using one or more of the
| mechanisms described above. For inheritance purposes, and to
activate profiles via <activatedProfiles/>
| or the command line, profiles have to have an ID that is
unique.
|
| An encouraged best practice for profile identification is to
use a consistent naming convention
| for profiles, such as 'env-dev', 'env-test', 'env-production',
'user-jdcasey', 'user-brett', etc.
| This will make it more intuitive to understand what the set of
introduced profiles is attempting
| to accomplish, particularly when you only have a list of
profile id's for debug.
|
| This profile example uses the JDK version to trigger
activation, and provides a JDK-specific repo.
<profile>
<id>jdk-1.4</id>
<activation>
<jdk>1.4</jdk>
</activation>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>jdk14</id>
<name>Repository for JDK 1.4 builds</name>
<url>
http://www.myhost.com/maven/jdk14</url>
<layout>default</layout>
<snapshotPolicy>always</snapshotPolicy>
</repository>
</repositories>
</profile>
-->
<!--
| Here is another profile, activated by the system property
'target-env' with a value of 'dev',
| which provides a specific path to the Tomcat instance. To use
this, your plugin configuration
| might hypothetically look like:
|
| ...
| <plugin>
| <groupId>org.myco.myplugins</groupId>
| <artifactId>myplugin</artifactId>
|
| <configuration>
| <tomcatLocation>${tomcatPath}</tomcatLocation>
| </configuration>
| </plugin>
| ...
|
| NOTE: If you just wanted to inject this configuration whenever
someone set 'target-env' to
| anything, you could just leave off the <value/> inside
the activation-property.
|
<profile>
<id>env-dev</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>target-env</name>
<value>dev</value>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<tomcatPath>/path/to/tomcat/instance</tomcatPath>
</properties>
</profile>
