I kept getting an error about the maven-archetype-plugin whenever I tried to create a new application using maven 2. It turns out part of my local maven repository must have become corrupted or failed to download properly. It was solved by deleting .m2/repository/org/apache/maven and allowing maven to download all the required dependencies again.
So, this is for google (and for me, the next time it happens).
