Henning Schmiedehausen commented on MAVEN-1764: ----------------------------------------------- Is still not changed (last site publish for 1.x was June 20th). Is still not changed in the URL listed above (http://maven.apache.org/using/repositories.html) which has last published at Oct 20th 2005 (!), almost nine months ago). > planetmirror repository listed in the documentation prevents any project from > building > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAVEN-1764 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MAVEN-1764 > Project: Maven > Type: Bug > Components: documentation > Reporter: Henning Schmiedehausen > Assignee: Carlos Sanchez > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 1.1-beta-3 > Attachments: oro-2.0.7.jar > > > On http://maven.apache.org/using/repositories.html, some maven repository > URLs are listed as examples. One of these is > http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/maven/. However, this is not a "real" > maven repository, planetmirror.com insists on showing you advertisments > before a jar can be downloaded. It does behave differently whether you > access an URL with a browser, wget or maven. > This leads to hard to find build errors, because maven (1.0.2, the last > released version of 1.x, you know), even with the artifact updates installed, > chokes on these redirects and saves the HTML page as jar file. Which in turn > leads to hard to find build errors. > Please either remove planetmirror.com from the documentation pages or work > with the people there to fix this behaviour. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
