Issue with commons-httpclient?

[Craig L Russell]

Hi Maveners, The latest Maven 1.0.2 has a problem when using these directions: Find the line of maven.xml in the project.properties file with the maven.remote.repo property, and add "http://www.apache.org/~clr/downloads/maven" to the ibiblio and jpox urls. What happens is that www.apache.org/~clr is redirected to people.apache.org and this redirection is not resolved by the httpclient used by Maven. Are there any plans to update the code or the version of the jar file used in Maven? Would you like more information or should I file a bug?  Regards,  Craig Background: Regarding the problem with automatic maven download of the jdo2 jars: maven can download the files automatically if the URL refers to people.apache.org instead of www.apache.org: http://people.apache.org/~clr/downloads/maven On Jan 23, 2006, at 3:02 AM, Andy Jefferson wrote: FYI. Maven (1.0), or the associated plugin, is probably using "commons-httpclient" with a version that doesn't understand HTTP redirects. The same broken functionality has been noticed on the Maven "SourceForge" plugin (when SourceForge decided to add redirecting into their upload URLs).
