Daniel Takai commented on MINSTALL-54: -------------------------------------- We're experiencing the same problem. We run * Archiva 1.2.1 * CentOS release 5 (Final) * Java 1.6.0_02 * Maven 2.2.1 {code} [INFO] Retrieving previous metadata from snapshots [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Error installing artifact's metadata: Error installing metadata: Error updating group repository metadata in epilog non whitespace content is not allowed but got n (position: END_TAG seen ...</metadata>\nn... @14:2) [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ {code} This problem occurs on a regular basis (daily) and causes problems with our builds since artifacts cannot be deployed and builds fail. The corrupt metadata needs to be repaired manually which is quite a lot of work. Quite nerve wrecking when you really need that build and Archiva goes booooom. An example for corrupt metadata look like this: {code:xml} <metadata> <groupId>com.some.group</groupId> <artifactId>html</artifactId> <versioning> <latest>0.1-SNAPSHOT</latest> <versions> <version>0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> </versions> <lastUpdated>20100202145220</lastUpdated> </versioning> </metadata> >html</artifactId> <versioning> <latest>0.1-SNAPSHOT</latest> <versions> <version>0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> </versions> <lastUpdated>20100202163215</lastUpdated> </versioning> </metadata> {code} > [INFO] Error installing artifact's metadata > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: MINSTALL-54 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINSTALL-54 > Project: Maven 2.x Install Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: install:install > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Environment: Windows XP > Reporter: geoff simpson > > [INFO] Error installing artifact's metadata: Error installing metadata: Error > updating group repository metadata > end tag not allowed in epilog but got / (position: END_TAG seen ...\n > Looks like there might be an issue with updates to maven-metadata-local.xml > during the mvn install task. we have a build server that is multi threaded. > we often see this in the > </versioning> > </metadata> > </metadata> > maven-metadata-local.xml. > maybe a solution is to add maven-metadata-local.xml.lock to ensure two > threads don't update the file at the same time -- 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
