i m using maven 2.0.9 and recently i have shifted my repository to sonatype
nexus 1.9.0.2 from archiva.
I have migrated all the necessary artifcats to sonatype nexus as explained
in their docs and found no errors while rebuilding any indexes whatsoever in
the logs. The migration was successful. However, while deploying one of the
project, i get following error..
