[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-53?page=comments#action_83949 ] Chris Love commented on MDEP-53: --------------------------------
I believe that this is an error message that is created by maven and not by this plugin. I do not believe that this plugin can change this error message. I would encourage you too file this as a bug with the maven team, because this is a error message that is not very helpful. > Meaningless error message: "Error transferring file" > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MDEP-53 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-53 > Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Graham Leggett > Assigned To: Brian Fox > > When an attempt is made to resolve dependencies, the following error is > encountered: > [INFO] artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin: checking for > updates from codehaus-mojo-snapshot-plugins > [WARNING] repository metadata for: 'artifact > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin' could not be retrieved from > repository: codehaus-mojo-snapshot-plugins due to an error: Error > transferring file > [INFO] Repository 'codehaus-mojo-snapshot-plugins' will be blacklisted > Without further information, debugging this problem is impractical. > Information needed in the error message: > - Whether or not a proxy is being used, and if so, which one. (Symptoms in > this case indicate no proxy is being used, yet a proxy is configured - no way > to tell whether its a config problem or a proxy problem) > - Whether the server and/or proxy server gave an error code (4xx, 5xx), or > whether there was no response at all. -- 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
