Create a simple project:

mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=test -DartifactId=offline_parent_test -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart

edit the pom.xml and add a parent entry that you know exists in your local repository, e.g.

<parent>
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>MyParent</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>

run

mvn -o install

produces the following error:
