Failure to resolve artifact if there is a dependency that uses version range
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4380
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4380
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Dependencies
Affects Versions: 2.x
Environment: Unix, JDK 1.6
Reporter: Jane Young
Attachments: pom.xml
I have a simple pom.xml that defines a dependency on jsp-impl from the Maven
repository: http://download.java.net/maven/2
--------------------------pom.xml-----------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Running "mvn install" will fail with the message:
Downloading:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/javax/servlet/jsp/jsp-api/2.1.3-b05/jsp-api-2.1.3-b05.jar

[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.
Missing:
----------
1) javax.servlet.jsp:jsp-api:jar:2.1.3-b05
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javax.servlet.jsp -DartifactId=jsp-api
-Dversion=2.1.3-b05 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=javax.servlet.jsp -DartifactId=jsp-api
-Dversion=2.1.3-b05 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url]
-DrepositoryId=[id]
Path to dependency:
1) maven.test:simple:jar:1.0
2) org.glassfish.web:jsp-impl:jar:2.1.3-b17
3) javax.servlet.jsp:jsp-api:jar:2.1.3-b05
----------
1 required artifact is missing.
for artifact:
maven.test:simple:jar:1.0
from the specified remote repositories:
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2),
java.net (http://download.java.net/maven/2)
It's complaining about resolving the artifact jsp-api. But this artifact
(javax.servlet.jsp:jsp-api:jar:2.1.3-b05) exists in java.net
(http://download.java.net/maven/2/javax/servlet/jsp/jsp-api/2.1.3-b05/).
Looks like it's trying to download the artifact from the Central repo
(http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) and not even search for it in java.net. The
message at the end is not true.
If I explicitly define jsp-api artifact in the pom.xml then it compiles
successfully.
Note: The dependency of jsp-api uses version range.
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet.jsp</groupId>
<artifactId>jsp-api</artifactId>
<version>[2.1.3-b02,2.2)</version>
</dependency>
It maybe related to MNG-2742 but this is not a plugin dependency.
