Hi For Maven 2 working in offline mode where the project is behind a firewall / proxy and disconnected from the Internet.
I get this error mvn clean [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- [INFO] Building PTSP Valuations Schema (XML Beans) [INFO] task-segment: [clean] [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- [INFO] artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-clean-plugin: checking for updates from central [WARNING] repository metadata for: 'artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-clean-plugin' could not be retrieved from repository: central due to an error: Error transferring file [INFO] Repository 'central' will be blacklisted [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] The plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-clean-plugin' does not exist or no valid version could be found [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] For more information, run Maven with the -e switch [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 2 seconds [INFO] Finished at: Wed Nov 15 16:05:00 GMT 2006 [INFO] Final Memory: 1M/4M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Even though I copied my entire M2 repository to the test machine, and reset the ~/.m2/setting.xml to point to the new repository. I assumed with my 217MB repository that worked on my developer machine, it would work also on the isolated machine. Is there a way of telling M2 to not look outside? What does the <offline> in the settings.xml actually do, then?
