I have a restful application that I converted to a maven project. Now, I get a compile error when using maven compile
because the java-ee/openjpa packages are not found. Below is my POM file

Here is the particular error in eclipse:
Missing artifact com.ibm.tools.target:was-liberty:pom:8.5.5
And in CLI:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project developer-portal: Could not resolve dependencies for project developer-porta l:developer-portal:war:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT: Failure to find com.ibm.tools.target:was-liberty:pom:8.5.5 in http://repo.maven.apache.org/ maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced -> [Help 1]
References:
The problem was maven was only looking at the central repository. To add IBM's repository, you need the following in your POM:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>Liberty</id>
<name>Liberty Repository</name>
<url>http://public.dhe.ibm.com/ibmdl/export/pub/software/websphere/wasdev/maven/repository/</url>
</repository>
