Performing release gets "NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.maven.settings.Settings.getRuntimeInfo()Lorg/apache/maven/settings/RuntimeInfo"

[Emory Penney]

When I try to run the release:prepare and release:perform goals on my Plugin with this command:

mvn release:prepare release:perform -Dusername=ejpenney -Dpassword=***

 I get the following errors:

I'm a bit new to Maven so I'm not really sure what I'm looking at here.  It seems clear there's some incompatibility between plugin versions but I don't understand which.  I've tried updating my base Jenkins version but that opens up a whole different can of worms.  Does anyone have any insights?

[Gavin Mogan]

Did you see http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/maven-3-2-2-breaks-maven-invoker-plugin-td5797708.html

Is that related? I vaguely remembering having a similar issue in the past and it turned out the default maven on macbooks had an issue like that.

So based on above I'd suggest upgrading invoker plugin, or try out a different version of maven.

Switching to Maven 3.2.1 got me past that error!  Dealing with a few other issues, but I think I'm on the right track now.  Thanks!

I suspect you defined M2_HOME. Never do it :-).

getting rid of maven-release-plugin 2.2.1, and stepping up to 2.5.3 (latest) was the solution.

for some reason maven-release-plugin was frozen at 2.2.1, old and outdated.
