"This is actually happening because of a snapshot version metadata change that went out with maven 3 beta 3, so if folks used that to deploy, the metadata will be unreadable by nexus versions 1.7.2 and earlier.
However, we do have a patch that can be applied. Just drop the following jar in your (basedir)/runtime/apps/nexus/lib directory and remove the existing mercury-md-shared-1.0-alpha-6.jar file (of course requires nexus restart once done) https://repository.sonatype.org/content/groups/forge/org/apache/maven/mercury/mercury-md-shared/1.0-alpha-6-SONATYPE/mercury-md-shared-1.0-alpha-6-SONATYPE.jar This patch is able to be applied to nexus versions from 1.3.6 through 1.7.2, of course this will be non-issue come the 1.8.0 release" On Sat, Sep 18, 2010 at 6:51 AM, Anders Hammar <and...@hammar.net> wrote: > I believe this is a Nexus issue, for which there is a fix.
