I have occasion to build at locations where I don't have internet access but I do have access to a cvs repository where I have added my local maven repository. So I build a local repository with a check out from cvs and then I build my project with 'mvn -o clean install'. However I get the following error: [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] The plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin' does not exist or no valid version could be found [INFO] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
but it's there! ls ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/2.0-beta-4/ CVS maven-site-plugin-2.0-beta-4.jar maven-site-plugin-2.0-beta-4.pom While testing this build process I have internet access and if I remove ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/2.0-beta-4 and build 'online' the same files (maven-site-plugin-2.0-beta-4.jar, maven-site-plugin-2.0-beta-4.pom) end up in the same place (~/.m2/repository/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/2.0-beta-4/) and the build works. Can anyone help me understand why this happens and how I can fix it? Xavier
