Meaningless error message: "Error transferring file"
----------------------------------------------------
Key: MDEP-53
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-53
Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Graham Leggett
Assigned To: Brian Fox
When an attempt is made to resolve dependencies, the following error is
encountered:
[INFO] artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin: checking for
updates from codehaus-mojo-snapshot-plugins
[WARNING] repository metadata for: 'artifact
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin' could not be retrieved from
repository: codehaus-mojo-snapshot-plugins due to an error: Error transferring
file
[INFO] Repository 'codehaus-mojo-snapshot-plugins' will be blacklisted
Without further information, debugging this problem is impractical.
Information needed in the error message:
- Whether or not a proxy is being used, and if so, which one. (Symptoms in this
case indicate no proxy is being used, yet a proxy is configured - no way to
tell whether its a config problem or a proxy problem)
- Whether the server and/or proxy server gave an error code (4xx, 5xx), or
whether there was no response at all.
