Could not transfer artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:pom:2.7.1 from/to central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)

Simplify things by using the following settings.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0" 
          xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
          xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0
                              http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">

 <proxies>
    <proxy>
      <id>myproxy</id>
      <active>true</active>
      <protocol>http</protocol>
      <username>user</username>  <!-- Put your username here -->
      <password>pass</password>  <!-- Put your password here -->
      <host>123.45.6.78</host>   <!-- Put the IP address of your proxy server here -->
      <port>80</port>            <!-- Put your proxy server's port number here -->
      <nonProxyHosts>local.net|some.host.com</nonProxyHosts> <!-- Do not use this setting unless you know what you're doing. -->
    </proxy>    
  </proxies> 
</settings>

Under Linux/Unix, place it under ~/.m2/settings.xml. Under Windows place it under c:\documents and settings\youruser\.m2\settings.xml or c:\users\youruser\.m2\settings.xml.

You don’t need the <mirrors/>, <profiles/> and <settings/> sections, unless you really know what they’re for.
