Hello Russel,
I have ran into the same problem as you, and I also tried to add some
mirrors in the setting.xml, but no success. Does your settings file
look something like mine?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<settings>
<proxies>
<proxy>
<id>myproxy</id>
<active>true</active>
<protocol>http</protocol>
<host>proxyhost</host>
<port>8080</port>
<username>user</username>
<password>password</password>
</proxy>
</proxies>
<mirrors>
<mirror>
<id>mirrors.dotsrc.org</id>
<name>Mirror of http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/</name>
<url>http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/maven2/</url>
<mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
</mirror>
<mirror>
<id>public.planetmirror.com</id>
<name>Mirror of http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/</name>
<url> http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/maven2/</url>
<mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
</mirror>
</mirrors>
</settings>
Many thanks for some pointers to errors..
