I am trying to run maven goal: validation and keep getting: [WARNING] The requested profile "pom.xml" could not be activated because it does not exist.

In my org.eclipse.m2e.core.prefs:

activeProfiles=pom.xml
eclipse.preferences.version=1
resolveWorkspaceProjects=true
version=1

What did I do wrong?

  1. Right click on your project
  2. Go to "Run as"
  3. Go to "Run configurations... "
  4. When the screen opens, please delete the word "pom.xml" from the "Profiles:" line and then click "Run".

The project will now run.
