The process for downloading and installing jars into the local repo cache is rather flawed. At least one bug has been filed and this is certainly in the mind of the Maven developers. I'm just not sure when it will be addressed -- probably not until M2.1.
I like the idea of the repo:repair mojo. In fact, I might even have to think about implementing something like that. Wayne On 7/26/07, John Coleman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Thanks Wayne, I had not seen this before, and it seems indeed to be some damage in the repo. Just copying fresh over repaired it. Quiet a lot seems to of corrupted. Would be nice to have something to that effect in the Maven log for that message. And what about a repository:repair kind of goal?

If it still is failing, delete the ~/.m2/ directory (if not the whole thing, delete the org/apache/maven/plugins directory) and try again. The "plugin does not exist or no valid version could be found" error sometimes happens when you get "bad" artifacts in your m2 cache. Usually, that happens when you're using a "bad" or incorrectly configured mirror, or you've got a misconfigured proxy etc. Wayne Eurobase International Limited and its subsidiaries (Eurobase) are unable to exercise control over the content of information in E-Mails.
