title: Maven Error : Maven Project Configuration for Module isn't available
body: <p>I keep getting this error when I try to compile my code. I have the pom.xml file in my directories but I am not sure if there is something wrong in there. I found only one link on the internet regarding this and that was not my case: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30810169/maven-project-configuration-required-for-module">Maven project configuration required for module</a></p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Error:Maven Resources Compiler: Maven project configuration required for module 'updater' isn't available. Compilation of Maven projects is supported only if external build is started from an IDE.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Here is the content of my pom file:</p>
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;UTF-8&quot;?&gt;
  &lt;project xmlns=&quot;http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0&quot;

      &lt;modelVersion&gt;4.0.0&lt;/modelVersion&gt;
  
      &lt;groupId&gt;com.nothing.updater&lt;/groupId&gt;
      &lt;artifactId&gt;Updater&lt;/artifactId&gt;
      &lt;version&gt;1.0-SNAPSHOT&lt;/version&gt;

              &lt;!--&lt;version&gt;1.1&lt;/version&gt;--&gt;
          &lt;!--&lt;/dependency&gt;--&gt;
  
      &lt;!--&lt;/dependencies&gt;--&gt;
  &lt;/project&gt;
