Mark Leone commented on MNG-5902: --------------------------------- In the course of creating a stripped down project to demonstrate the problem, I discovered the problem. The presence of `org.eclipse.xtend:xtend-maven-plugin` in the pom was causing the problem. The plug-in is not used, and was perhaps misconfigured, per a message I saw in the build output. > URL contains illegal character ("[") for google guava artifact from central > repo (goal: dependency:go-offline) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-5902 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5902 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Artifacts and Repositories, Dependencies > Affects Versions: 3.2.3 > Environment: CentOS 6.7; Tycho 0.23.0 > Reporter: Mark Leone > > While running the Maven goal dependency:go-offline, the build fails while > trying to download google guava artifacts from the central repository. The > error message indicates an illegal character in the URL, specifically a "[" > character, which comes from the version specifier. > First I run > mvn -Dmaven.repo.local=/some/path/ -DgeneratePom=true clean install > to create the artifacts, and that build succeeds. Then when I run > mvn -Dmaven.repo.local=/some/path/ -o clean install > it fails because it's running in offline mode and there is no local cache > available for http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.6 > So then I run > mvn -Dmaven.repo.local=/some/path/ dependency:go-offline > to make it download all the artifacts it needs for the build, but it fails > with this message: > ERROR] Failed to execute goal > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.8:resolve-plugins > (resolve-plugins) on project : Nested: Could not transfer artifact > com.google.guava:guava:jar:[10.0.1,14.0.1] from/to central > (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2): Illegal character in path at index > 60: > https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/google/guava/guava/[10.0.1,14.0.1]/guava-[10.0.1,14.0.1].jar > The product being built is an Eclipse RCP product, using the > org.eclipse.tycho:target-platform-configuration plug-in to load the > dependencies from an RCP target file. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
