I've had that happen a couple times, too. It wasn't really Maven's fault though -- the repo webserver wasn't properly configured, so instead of a 404 response when an artifact could not be found, it sent back a 200 with the content being "this page cannot be found".
You can certainly complain about how Maven handles that situation (should arguably parse and validate all POMs to a certain level prior to installing locally) but clearly some webservers are just not configured "properly" per the HTTP spec etc. Wayne On 8/29/06, Torsten Curdt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Check your local repository. I've encountered a similar problem. Maven downloaded an html error page instead of a valid pom. I had to change the mirror and remove the invalid poms from my .m2/repository. Never expected maven to be so stupid and not realize that it had downloaded crap :-( HTH -- Torsten On 8/29/06, Emmanuel Venisse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Piyush Kumar Nahata a écrit : > > > > > > Hi, > > When I give the URL with the POM.xml included in it, as http://10.225.96.127:8089/svn/repos/steam/common/pom.xml <http://10.225.96.127:8089/svn/repos/steam/common/pom.xml> , I get a different Error. > > > > Could not download http://10.225.96.127:8089/svn/repos/steam/common/pom.xml: /work/servers/continuum-1.0.3/temp/continuum/svn/repos/steam/common/pom.xml (Not a directory) > > > > When I browsed to this path, I found that Steam is a directory, but common is a file and not a directory.
