How to change a referenced classprovider in Eclipse?

user496547 picture user496547 · Nov 4, 2010 · Viewed 22.5k times · Source

I uninstalled the maven plugin but when trying to run the project that was perfectly running before the plugin I have "Referenced classpath provider does not exist: org.maven.ide.eclipse.launchconfig.classpathprovider". I assume I have to change the launch configuration for the project. Can anyone provide the steps to do so? Thank you.

If you get this error when launching a Run Configuration in Eclipse with the IAM (Maven) >plugin:

Referenced classpath provider does not exist: >org.maven.ide.eclipse.launchconfig.classpathProvider

It’s probably because your Run Configuration was created on an old project, and has bad >entries in the Classpath section. The solution is to delete the Run Configuration and create >a new one.
