No plugin found for prefix 'android' in the current project

Question

I have started since 2 days learning Maven & using goals as deploy and install.So I hv used this command:

mvn install android:deploy

Note:clean,install commands work fine

this is what I get:

[ERROR] No plugin found for prefix 'android' in the current project and in the plugin groups [com.cryptolog.maven.plugins, org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repositories [local (/home/yougostt/.m2/repository), central

and this is the pom.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

        <artifactId>libxmlrpc</artifactId>
        <version>${rpc.version}</version>
    </dependency>

    </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
<properties>
  <rpc.version>3.7</rpc.version>
</properties>
</project>

How can I fix it please?

Supposing you are using the com.simpligilty.maven.plugins Android Maven Plugin (but the same would also work for any other plugin), you can add to your pom the following (as also explained by its official usage page:

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>com.simpligility.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>4.4.1</version>
            <extensions>true</extensions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

If instead you are using the Jayway Androind Maven Plugin, the configuration would look like (as also explained by the official Spring guide:

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2</groupId>
            <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.9.0-rc.1</version>
            <extensions>true</extensions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>
