URL: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases
“Maven Integration for Eclipse” shown, I selected it,"next",
then, error happend:

Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found. Software being installed: m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.eclipse.m2e.feature.feature.group 1.0.100.20110804-1717) Missing requirement: m2e - Maven Integration for Eclipse 1.0.100.20110804-1717 (org.eclipse.m2e.feature.feature.group 1.0.100.20110804-1717) requires 'org.eclipse.platform.feature.group 3.6.0' but it could not be found

I don't know what's "org.eclipse.platform.feature.group 3.6.0", I tried to search for install it but I can't.

Why not to use Eclipse Marketplace? Help -> Eclipse Marketplace... and then install Maven Integration for Eclipse and optionally Maven Integration for Eclipse WTP. It works for me.

Eclipse – How to solve “Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration” for Spring Data Maven Builds

In my case of a similar problem, instead of using Andrew's suggestion for the fix, it worked simply after I introduced <pluginManagement> tag to the pom.xml in question. Looks like that error is due to a missing <pluginManagement> tag. So, in order to avoid the exceptions in Eclipse, one needs to simply enclose all the plugin tags inside a <pluginManagement> tag, like so:

<build>
    <pluginManagement>
        <plugins>
            <plugin> ... </plugin>
            <plugin> ... </plugin>
                  ....
        </plugins>
    </pluginManagement>
</build>

Once this structure is in place, the error goes away.

Maven – How to install Maven in RAD 8.5.1

It took me a bit of effort to figure this out, so here's an expanded answer:

In the IBM Installation Manager, click "Modify".
Find the IBM Software Delivery Platform that includes IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software 8.5
Click "Next" to get to the language page
Click "Next" to get to the feature selection page
Maven is listed under IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere -> Collaborative development and build tools
Click "Next", then "Modify" and let the installation manager do its thing.
