Adding the mirror was all I needed to do last night to hack away. /James

Sorry, I search for "maven.glassfish.org" on Google Groups but it didn't give me https://groups.google.com/d/topic/jenkinsci-dev/1aPlT07gRQ0/discussion (and I didn't recognize "m.g.o-public" as a synonym while quickly scanning the latest threads) So, does it mean I could have added a mirror in my settings.xml? Something like: <mirror> <id>repo.jenkins-ci.org</id> <mirrorOf>m.g.o-public</mirrorOf> <url>http://repo.jenkins-ci.org/public</url<http://repo.jenkins-ci.org/public%3c/url>> </mirror> On Friday, March 2, 2012 5:46:38 PM UTC+1, Thomas Broyer wrote: Hi there, I was going to start hacking on Jenkins (actually on the gerrit-trigger-plugin) and Maven's “downlading the internet…” was taking much longer than it should be. I then noticed it stopped for minutes trying to resolve artifacts from maven.glassfish.org<http://maven.glassfish.org>. It turns out the server has been put offline in the last couple of days: http://java.net/projects/glassfish/lists/dev/archive/2012-02/message/118 As a workaround, I ended up hacking the downloaded POMs to remove the references to the repository: sed -i 's|http://maven.glassfish.org/content/groups/public/|http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/|<http://maven.glassfish.org/content/groups/public/%7Chttp:/repo1.maven.org/maven2/%7C>' $(grep -R maven.glassfish.org<http://maven.glassfish.org> ~/.m2/ --include '*.pom' -l) It all went smooth after that, proof that references to that maven repo were not actually needed ⇒ bad practice (or were they really needed at some earlier point in time?) Well, that just a FYI (with a little bit of rant); now back to hacking! (and by the way, thank you so much for making Jenkins!) ________________________________ ************************************************************************************** This message is confidential and intended only for the addressee.
