This could very well be maven specific . . . but I don't know exactly which output is from maven and which is from Jenkins . . .
At the very start of my build, it complains that it can't find the parent pom of the pom being built. Yet it does find it. In the output below, it says that it is downloading the parent pom from my remote nexus repo, but then says it can't find it in central? Why is it looking in central? Here's my truncated output: <===[JENKINS REMOTING CAPACITY]===>channel started Executing Maven: -B -f /var/hudson/workspace/myProj/projectX/pom.xml clean deploy -Phudson -e -U + Error stacktraces are turned on.
