It worked because you had <snapshots><enabled>true somewhere. > What's extra confusing is I have <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf> - shouldn't that say > "this url is a mirror of EVERYTHING? That means it'll be a mirror for any repository defined in settings.xml or pom.xml. If none of those repos have snapshots enabled, Maven won't download any snapshots. > But I'm not saying I'm mirroring JUST central, I thought I was saying "I'm > mirroring every repository you could possibly need". > See my comment about the <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>. No, it just means, "When you go through your list of known repositories, substitute this url instead of the original one defined." -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
