Re: AW: [mvn] bad artifacs returned

Using an old copy of the libraries should work for you.
(I have packaged the following dependencies:
* jargs:jargs:1.0
* org.apache.xalan:xalan:2.7.1
* org.opensaml:openws:1.2.2)

it applies to compile axis2:1.6.0

the answer is simple; look at 

http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/opensaml/opensaml/2.2.3/opensaml-2.2.3.pom

and see how opensaml's dependency on xalan is defined.

That is to say if I get you right :::
if I have a dependency on opensaml I need to exclude in  my project the 
transitive dependency to xalan in the dependency to opensaml?

2012-07-05 Thread Ron Wheeler

I think that I pointed this out several days ago.

We always check the full list of dependencies including the transitive 
ones in our projects to ensure  that we are aware of version issues.

Our repo setup also restricts the places that Maven can ook for artifacts.

Yes, this is correct/what you want if you are running a corporate

There has been some discussion of changing Maven's code to ignore (or
add an option to do so) repos declared in pom files like this. I am in

 I am not sure I understand the reluctance to test that POMs are well-formed.
 A POM that is not well-formed is worthy of a note at least.

I just wouldn't want a not-well-formed pom (which Maven says is ok for
its purposes) to prevent someone from being able to use a given
artifact as a dependency. I agree that a well-formed test is
reasonable for pom files but would want it to give a WARNING not an
ERROR.

 It should be possible to recognize the HTML returned by the big-three
 repos in the case of an error and display the HTML body or part of it in the
 error message.

Which are the big three? ;-)

 Perhaps a standard could be agreed upon by the big-three to make it easier
 for Maven to detect the fact that an error message has been returned and
 have all three put out similar messages.

I prefer webserver error messages to return the proper http status
code as they should (*not* http 200), then we wouldn't even have this
discussion.

It does seem to be kind of a security risk to be able to sneak a repo 
into someone's environment like that.
I am glad that you confirmed that a properly set up repo and 
settings.xml prevents this from happening.


In Josef's case, it would have changed the error and depending on what 
Maven says when it finds the repo in the dependency, he might still have 
been misled into trying to find the mis-configured xalan dependency 
which could have resulted in the same amount of frustration but directed 
in a different way.


At least he would not have had a missing dependency rather than a file 
that looked to be the right name but was just html.


There needs to a recognition on the part of the Maven development group 
that although repositories are not part of the development scope, they 
need to have a more prominent place in the Maven documentation.
My experience of getting a repo latter in the maven adoption cycle, has 
really made me aware of how much harder it was for us to work with Maven 
and really understand the Maven philosophy before we had the repo.

AW: [mvn] bad artifacs returned

2012-07-04 Thread Stadelmann Josef
To answer part of my question:

if a project has a dependency on xalan, and somehow maven-magic the artifact is 
said to be at 
http://shibboleth.internet2.edu/downloads/maven2/org/apache/xalan/xalan/2.7.1/xalan-2.7.1.pom

however, there, a redirect happens, and the pom or the jar just ends in the 
following content/page


!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN 
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd;
html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml;
head
meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=UTF-8 /
titleInternet2 Shibboleth Project has moved/title
style type=text/css
h3, h4 {margin-bottom:0;}
h3+p {margin-top:0;}
. . .


in fact content of any jar or pom or sha downloaded is the html page explaining 
the user that 

*** Internet2 Shibboleth Project has moved ***

what is wrong ?

who has to act ?

this for the xalan and maybe many other artifacts expected to be found at the
http://shibboleth.internet2.edu/downloads/maven2 repository server

so in such case a solution is to exclude org.apache.xalan:xalan from
the shibboleth artifact.
and add a dependency to xalan:xalan.
And contact those folks who publish bad poms.

It appears you have a bad dependency definition.

Only you can fix it.

The right one is
dependency
   groupIdxalan/groupId
   artifactIdxalan/artifactId
   version2.7.1/version
/dependency

It appears that you have

dependency
   groupIdorg.apache.xalan/groupId
   artifactIdxalan/artifactId

No one knows how you got this included in your effective POM but it is

Excluding all the repos in the world will not fix your problem.

I would not say that - because I just found out that the artifact
org/apache/rampart/rampart-project/1.6.2/rampart-project-1.6.1.pom 
has the following snippet in it. AND
My project so far depends on this artifact and it comes from apache !

Now I will check if I can make it without this artifact.
rampart-project-1.6.1.pom

and rampart-1.6.2 as well

But the trouble makers are not at apache ! 
they are at EDU shibboleth which moved the artifact repository 
potentially without telling axis2/rampart folk what they did.

what can maven do when a request for an artifact is re-directed into nirvana?

Re: AW: AW: [mvn] bad artifacs returned

2012-07-04 Thread Ron Wheeler

That is why one should not put repo definitions in poms.
The people at fault are the opensaml authors.

It is also why you mirror ALL references to repos that Maven makes so 
that they all go to your repo manager and then your repo manager will 
decide what external repos should be consulted.

That is your fault in this case.

BTW:

shibboleth.internet2.edu has no way to notify others who will be impacted by 
their shutdown.
Perhaps they did notify you when they did it years ago but you did not 
understand how that would affect you until this week.


OTOH: I sure hope Sonatype never shuts down Maven Central without sending me an 
e-mail.
Sonantype guys, just to let you know... I really depend on Maven Central being 
up.


Was I wrong about the dependency definition being incorrect?

 in fact content of any jar or pom or sha downloaded is the html page 
 explaining the user that

 *** Internet2 Shibboleth Project has moved ***

 what is wrong ?

 who has to act ?

This is the result of a poorly configured Maven repository. This is
not Maven's fault.

The shibboleth repository should not return http 200 status code when
it is unable to serve the proper file, which is what it is doing.
Maven interprets the http 200 status code as everything is OK and
saves the resulting HTML as the pom or jar file you requested.

Ideally there would be some Maven magic which checks the contents of
the file and ensures it seems like a reasonable pom, jar, war, etc
before saving it to the local repo cache but that does not currently
exist beyond a feature request in JIRA.

Problems like this hopefully teach people to be aware of what Maven
repositories they are linking to for dependencies and become a little
bit more cautious about them. Also if you were running a proper MRM
like Nexus, this problem would be dealt with in the MRM. For the best
Maven-experience, you really need to be running an MRM.

There should be a BIG note on the Maven front page and on the download page.

Do NOT even think about using Maven until you have your Maven repo running!
This means you!!! When applied without a repo, Maven is hazardous and 
may cause rage, intense loathing of your vocation and a desire to kick 
an innocent person, animal or inanimate object or to write ill-tempered 
e-mail to forums.
Seriously, you will not like the experience and you may get hurt and

If anything does not work and you do not have a repo, you are on your

Well, Josef did say in another post:
 we have a corporate repository acting as a proxy to central !
...
 But bad luck, our repository is really just a mirror of central and
 contains the same rubbish for xalan-2.7.1.pom and jar

So it seems he does have some kind of a corporate repository which is
acting as a proxy. I don't know any more details though (what MRM he
is running, what version, how it is configured, etc) which might be
helpful to know.

 This is the result of a poorly configured Maven repository. This is
 not Maven's fault.

 The shibboleth repository should not return http 200 status code when
 it is unable to serve the proper file, which is what it is doing.
 Maven interprets the http 200 status code as everything is OK and
 saves the resulting HTML as the pom or jar file you requested.

 Ideally there would be some Maven magic which checks the contents of
 the file and ensures it seems like a reasonable pom, jar, war, etc
 before saving it to the local repo cache but that does not currently
 exist beyond a feature request in JIRA.

 Problems like this hopefully teach people to be aware of what Maven
 repositories they are linking to for dependencies and become a little
 bit more cautious about them. Also if you were running a proper MRM
 like Nexus, this problem would be dealt with in the MRM. For the best
 Maven-experience, you really need to be running an MRM.

 I  think that the suggestion to validate items returned is a good one
 that we should raise with, I think, Aether.

I don't disagree. I'm not sure that we can guarantee much beyond this
seems to be XML (I'm not sure that we should test for it being
well-formed etc) or this seems to be a zip file (for jars, wars and
ears) but just a basic check of this is not garbage HTML would be
sufficient (and a big enhancement) for most users.

Re: [mvn] bad artifacs returned

2012-07-04 Thread Ron Wheeler


Am I mistaken to think that a
mirrors
mirror
  !--This sends everything else to /public --
  idnexus/id
  mirrorOf*/mirrorOf
urlhttp://myRepoURL:8081/nexus/content/groups/public/url
/mirror
  /mirrors

in my settings.xml will stop Maven from reaching a repo that someone 
defined in a jar that I include as a dependency?
I believe that this setting sucks up any attempt by Maven on the 
developers workstation to reach any repo and forces it to mine.


I will defer to your superior knowledge of Maven and repos but this was 
the belief that triggered my comments about the benefit of a properly 
configured Maven and repo preventing the problem in this case.


Am I wrong in thinking that I am safe from third party libraries 
interfering with my master plan of library reference?

Well, Josef did say in another post:

we have a corporate repository acting as a proxy to central !

...

But bad luck, our repository is really just a mirror of central and
contains the same rubbish for xalan-2.7.1.pom and jar

So it seems he does have some kind of a corporate repository which is
acting as a proxy. I don't know any more details though (what MRM he
is running, what version, how it is configured, etc) which might be
helpful to know.

Re: [mvn] bad artifacs returned

2012-07-04 Thread Ron Wheeler

I am not sure I understand the reluctance to test that POMs are well-formed.
A POM that is not well-formed is worthy of a note at least.
Compared to the cost of a download, the test for well-formed XML should 
be pretty small for a file the size of a POM.



It should be possible to recognize the HTML returned by the big-three 
repos in the case of an error and display the HTML body or part of it in 
the error message.
Perhaps a standard could be agreed upon by the big-three to make it 
easier for Maven to detect the fact that an error message has been 
returned and have all three put out similar messages.
