Hi. I'm struggling to understand how Maven manages its list of repositories. If I take a repository out of the <repositories> section of my pom.xml, Maven doesn't necessarily start using that repository. I'm using Maven 2.0.4
For example, I have a pom.xml for a project that depends on ActiveMQ. Right now, it has no <repositories> block, so I expect Maven to use my local repository and the central repo. Instead, I get this: Error transferring file org.apache.activemq:activemq-web:jar:4.1-incubator-SNAPSHOT from the specified remote repositories: central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2), apache.snapshots (http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository), apache.incubating.releases (http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-incubating-repository) Path to dependency: 1) com.mycompany.myproject:basic-demo:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT 2) org.apache.activemq:apache-activemq:jar:4.1-incubator-SNAPSHOT 3) org.apache.activemq:activemq-web:jar:4.1-incubator-SNAPSHOT Caused by I/O exception: Server returned HTTP response code: 503 for URL: http:/ /people.apache.org/repo/m2-incubating-repository/org/apache/activemq/activemq-we b/4.1-incubator-SNAPSHOT/activemq-web-4.1-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar I know that people.apache.org is down, so I don't want to use it. The two repositories there were once in my pom.xml's <repositories> section, but I took them out because I wanted to avoid trying to hit that site. Can someone explain why Maven keeps trying to use repositories after I remove them from my pom.xml? Is there a way to make Maven stop using those repositories? I've already checked that there is no mention of these repositories in my settings.xml (local or global versions). -Beth -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/-m2--Maven-repositories-confusion-tf2502246.html#a6975719 Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
