Yeah, don't use it. All well-behaved webservers just return 404 NOT FOUND when a page cannot be found - thus Maven knows that the resource cannot be found on given repository. However, some stupid webservers (such as planetmirror) returns a regular webpage that contains the "Not found" text. Maven2 cannot know that the resource is not available and uses that "Not found" page instead of any resource that it tries poll from that repository. So, maven's local repository becomes corrupted and full of "Not found" pages. You need to: - remove all such resources (you need to check ALL files - .jar, .xml etc), from Maven2 local repository, - never use such repository again. > > On 16.5.2006 11:20, Jakub Pawlowicz wrote: > > Hi! > > > > It seems that maven-metadata-central.xml is corrupted. > > Try to delete it and then rerun the mvn install. > > > > HTH > > > > Regards, > > Jakub > > > > On Tue, 16 May 2006 11:12:12 +0200, Borut Bolčina wrote > > > > > I am loosing battle with maven... > > > > > > I removed .m2\repository\org\apache\maven\plugins\maven-install- > > > plugin.
