安装maven后运行：mvn help:system报错，No plugin found for prefix 'help' ...

运行命令：mvn help:system

错误信息：

[ERROR] No plugin found for prefix ‘help’ in the current project and in the plug
in groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repos
itories [local (C:\xxx\maven\repo), central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/
maven2)] -> [Help 1]

出错背景：当我在家里安装maven并运行mvn 后build success，当在公司运行后build failure. 并且从运行失败的错误输出中可以看到下载失败，所以可能和代理有关系。

报错信息如下：

分析：由于公司网络上网需要有代理设置，所以修改了maven安装目录中conf的settings.xml文件中

<proxies>
    <!-- 这是我的代理设置-->
    <proxy>
      <id>optional</id>
      <active>true</active>active的值为true表示激活该代理
      <protocol>http</protocol>protocol表示使用的代理协议，这里是http
      <host>proxy.host.net</host>
      <port>80</port>
      <nonProxyHosts>local.net|some.host.com</nonProxyHosts>
    </proxy>

<!-- prox

    <!--代理-->

    <proxy>
