If there is an existing file org.eclipse.m2e.core.prefs in the .settings folder of a Maven project and I import that using "Import existing Maven project", the file gets overwritten.

This means that the setting activeProfiles is lost.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

This Bug is five years old, but it's still broken. Any chance on gettings this fixed?

Comment 8 Aaron Digulla 2017-02-04 06:25:49 EST

Still broken.

Suggestion: When the project has a .project file and a .settings folder, just use the normal Eclipse "import existing project" instead of the broken "Import existing Maven project". Or maybe just ask.
