I added the following in the path <settings>/<profiles>/<repositories> to the conf/settings.xml file for Maven2: <repository> <id>java.net</id> <url>http://download.java.net/maven/1</url> <layout>legacy</layout> </repository> That is how Sun instructed to set this up at their site (https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/).
