I'm trying hard to use a fileserver as an internal repository (I saw
this somewhere in the documentation):
Such an internal repository can be downloaded from using HTTP or the
file system (using a file:// URL), and uploaded to using SCP, FTP, or a
file copy.
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>central-2</id>
<name>Upromise Maven Repository</name>
<url>file://somefileserver/mavenrepository</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
the (real) path works just fine for windows explorer, but when I run mvn
compile, I see it go to:
Downloading: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2.....
what am I doing wrong?
