Ok I reached something that I feared with maven: unable to get dependency.
When I try to build my project, i get this: Project ID: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin Reason: Error getting POM for 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin' from the repository: Unable to read local copy of metadata: Cannot read metadata from '/home/usr/.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/maven-metadata-maven2-repository.dev.java.net.xml': end tag name </body> must match start tag name <hr> from line 7 (position: TEXT seen ...</address>\n</body>... @9:8) org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:pom:LATEST for project org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin I checked /home/usr/.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/maven-metadata-maven2-repository.dev.java.net.xml file and it gives me: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>301 Moved Permanently</title> </head><body> <h1>Moved Permanently</h1> <p>The document has moved http://download.java.net/maven/2/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/maven-metadata.xml here .</p> <hr> <address>Apache Server at maven2-repository.dev.java.net Port 443</address> </body></html> If I go to the specified link it says "Page cannot be found". Am I permanently stuck? I searched my project for maven-site-plugin and did not find anything. Why is it trying to get that anyway? Is the repository down and I can NOT compile until it reopens? Please advise me how to fix it. I am a maven newbie. However, I do know for a fact that this same build worked a month ago! Please advise me on what to do. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Suck%2C-cannot-build%2C-repository-down---tp24941611p24941611.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
