It looks like you have a SSO for your browsers but not for the wget. You have to provide your proxy and the authentication.
>>> "Robin Rigby" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 07/20/07 2:30 >>> Thanks for your help. No, "mvn -U ..." has the same problem. So does "mvn clean". Only "mvn --version is OK". I don't think this is a transitory problem. It has been 36 hours now. - Summary ----------- Maven seems to fail when looking for http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/apache/4/apache-4.pom The file is there - I can read it with Firefox or Internet Explorer but wget fails with a 403 error. However, wget has no problem reading other files such as http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html - End summary --------- Baffled. Something on the server? I am going back to a fresh installation of Maven. Thanks for your help.

It works basically like wget. I really don't know why you're having troubles. I'd assume a transient network failure. Try "mvn -U ..." and see if things are working now.
