Problem
After adding a Maven executable to the Executable list (Administration > Executables) it doesn't show up in the Maven tasks drop down menu:
Normally, it should appear in the drop down menu as seen below:
Causes
The following are possible causes of this issue:
Cause 1: Bamboo Artifactory Plugin
This issue can be caused by having the Bamboo Artifactory plugin installed when you have both the Artifactory executable and the native Maven executable
Cause 2: Mismatch between Capabilities and Requirements
You may have a mismatch between Capabilities and Requirements for the agents and jobs, respectively.
Cause 3: Multiple Executables with the same name and type
This issue can also occur when you have multiple Executables with the same Type and Name.
Resolutions
Solution 1: Remove Artifactory Maven executable
If the Bamboo Artifactory plugin is installed, remove the "Artifactory Maven 3" executable
Solution 2: Rename Executables
Rename all but one of the Executables with the same Type so they all have distinct names.
Solution 3: Delete and readd Executables
If the above solutions do not work, remove all of the Maven Executables and add the new Maven executable
