Hi Konrad, The only two timeout related properties are aether.connector.requestTimeout and aether.connector.connectTimeout. Both do not solve my problem.
I created a GitHub project ( https://github.com/mvitz/maven-39-gh-actions-timeouts) which reproduces the problem. It declares many dependencies/plugins to make sure the complete HTTP pool is used before the tests, contains a test that runs in total about 6 minutes to take longer than the four-minute Azure timeout and uses Maven 3.9.1. The first build ( https://github.com/mvitz/maven-39-gh-actions-timeouts/actions/runs/4524745997/jobs/7968775993) uses -Daether.connector.requestTimeout=270000 which is longer than four minutes and fails. The second one ( https://github.com/mvitz/maven-39-gh-actions-timeouts/actions/runs/4524925829/jobs/7969075725) uses -Daether.connector.connectTimeout=60000 -Daether.connector.requestTimeout=180000 which is shorter but fails, too. Both builds fail with: Error: Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:3.3.0:jar (default-jar) on project maven-39-gh-actions-timeouts: Execution default-jar of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:3.3.0:jar failed: Plugin org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:3.3.0 or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: Failed to collect dependencies at org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:jar:3.3.0 -> org.apache.maven.shared:file-management:jar:3.1.0: Failed to read artifact descriptor for org.apache.maven.shared:file-management:jar:3.1.0: The following artifacts could not be resolved: org.apache.maven.shared:file-management:pom:3.1.0 (absent): Could not transfer artifact org.apache.maven.shared:file-management:pom:3.1.0 from/to central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2): Read timed out -> [Help 1] I suspect that the HTTP pool is fully used before the tests, all connections are silently interrupted during the test run that takes longer than the Azure limit of four minutes, and the pool unable to recover any connection from that. As told before when using wagon with -Dmaven.resolver.transport=wagon and configuring a pool time to love of 3 minutes via -Dmaven.wagon.httpconnectionManager.ttlSeconds=180 everything works as expected ( https://github.com/mvitz/maven-39-gh-actions-timeouts/actions/runs/4529868249/jobs/7978093099 ).
