---------------------------------------
Summary: Link to plugin's web site is reported as redirected by
maven linkcheck plugin.
Key: SUREFIRE-1173
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1173
Project: Maven Surefire
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Maven Surefire Plugin, Maven Surefire Report Plugin
Affects Versions: 2.18.1
Environment: checkstyle, maven linkcheck plugin
Reporter: Andrei Selkin
Hello!
We use maven linkcheck plugin to check links on checkstyle's website:
http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/ . The plugin reports that on page
http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/plugins.html the following link is
redirected:
http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin (301 Moved Permanently)
at http://maven.apache.org/components/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/ .
Links on plugins.html are generated by Apache Maven Project Info Reports
Plugin. All URLs are grabbed from effective POMs of plugins.
Here is the code:
https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/blob/trunk/maven-project-info-reports-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/report/projectinfo/PluginsReport.java#L239
https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/blob/trunk/maven-project-info-reports-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/report/projectinfo/PluginsReport.java#L269
In effective POM of maven surefire plugin the problematic link is:
<url>http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin</url>
Should be:
<url>http://maven.apache.org/components/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/
</url>
As a result, we do not have an ability to change plugins urls on that page,
because those links are specified by plugins developers.
So, please correct the link.
Thank in advance!
