Wendy Smoak commented on MRM-1423:
----------------------------------
I don't think Archiva "remembers" where it proxied something from.
I am also not sure that configuration changes should be retroactive.
That is, once you blacklist something, Archiva will not do further downloads,
but it won't go back and remove what it has already downloaded.
If you determine that there are 'bad' artifacts coming from a certain repo you
can use the delete feature to get rid of them.
> Blacklisting doesn't update existing metadata files

> Key: MRM-1423
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1423
> Project: Archiva
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: remote proxy
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1
> Reporter: Philip K. Warren
>
> When using the remote proxy support, I found that updating proxies to add
> blacklisted items didn't trigger any sort of update of the metadata in the
> repository. I was expecting that any references to metadata or previously
> downloaded artifacts from the blacklisted portion of the repository would be
> removed.
> For example, create two remote repositories - one for Maven central and one
> for JBoss public. Then run 'mvn archetype:generate' against Archiva. It will
> download the archetype plug-in metadata from both central and JBoss (JBoss
> has SNAPSHOT versions).
> Then configure a blacklist of 'org/apache/maven/**' on the JBoss repository.
> Expected behavior:
> 1) Metadata should be rebuilt to remove any references to artifacts in the
> blacklisted portion of the JBoss repository.
> Actual behavior:
> 1) Metadata remains for the blacklisted paths.
> The only way I could determine how to fix this was to remove this portion of
> Archiva and manually trigger a re-indexing of the repository.
