My PDE Project isn't working, what should I do?
Use the Eclipse forums for answers specific to PDE Projects. The pde-maven-plugin only provides a maven build lifecycle around your project.

pde-maven-plugin isn't working, what should I do?
First check whether your plugin works via Eclipse. Can you click on "Launch an Eclipse application" in the "Testing" section of the "Overview" tab of your plugin.xml's editor? Can you export your plugin via File > Export > Plug-in Development > * ? Does the exported plugin work when it is installed into your application/Eclipse environment?

Please ensure that all of the above work as pde-maven-plugin relies on the Ant build scripts supplied with Eclipse and will not work if any of the above are failing.
