Answer 1

Your pom is looking for another parent pom in the upper directory

<parent>
   <groupId>org.jboss.eap.quickstarts</groupId>
   <artifactId>quickstart-parent</artifactId>
   <version>7.1.0.GA</version>
   <relativePath>../pom.xml</relativePath>
</parent>

The parent project have to exist in the path used by <relativePath>

Hope it helps!
