Error when importing Maven-GWT project ("No marketplace entries found to handle gwt-maven-plugin")

eclipse gwt maven

I'm using Eclipse Indigo on Win XP, Maven 3.0.3 and GWT 2.4. I created a Maven-GWT project using the Mavne gwt archetype. Then I opened Eclipse, went to File -> Import, selected Existing Maven Projects, chose the pom for my GWT-Maven project, and then got this dialog:

enter image description here

The errors are

No marketplace entries found to handle gwt-maven-plugin:2.4.0:generateAsync in Eclipse.  Please see Help for more information.
No marketplace entries found to handle gwt-maven-plugin:2.4.0:i18n in Eclipse.  Please see Help for more information.
No marketplace entries found to handle maven-war-plugin:2.1.1:exploded in Eclipse.  Please see Help for more information.

Anyone know how to resolve these errors? It is wreaking havoc when I actually import my project and try and work with it. - Dave

Make sure you are not using the embedded Maven of Eclipse.

Go to Window->Preference ->Maven -> Installation->choose your own maven installation folder there.

EDIT

If your company pays for IDE, you should ask for IntelliJ the IDE for Java, which I would say is better than Eclipse in many ways, not saying Eclipse is not good, that's just a good alternative. And you won't have this issue to start with
