Confusing error report when transitive dependencies can't be resovled ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4954 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4954 Project: Maven 2 & 3 Issue Type: Bug Components: Dependencies Affects Versions: 3.0.1 Environment: Apache Maven 3.0.1 (r1038046; 2010-11-23 11:58:32+0100) Java version: 1.6.0_22 Default locale: fr_FR, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows 7" version: "6.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows" Reporter: Fred Bricon Priority: Minor Attachments: pom.xml, unresolved-deps.jpg I stumbled upon a weird issue, where failing to resolve a transitive dependency marks all the other ones as missing too. In the attached project, org.apache.chemistry.opencmis:chemistry-opencmis-client-impl:jar:0.1.0-incubating depends on com.sun.xml.ws:jaxws-rt:pom:2.1.7 which can't be resolved since the legacy layout of java.net is no longer supported. So far so good. Problem is, *ALL* other dependencies, which actually exist in my local repo, seem to be missing too. {noformat} [ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project project: Could not resolve dependencie s for project my.group:project:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Failed to collect dependencies for [org.apache.chemistry.opencmis:chemistry-opencmis-client-impl:jar:0.1.0-incu bating (compile), junit:junit:jar:4.8.1 (test), org.dbunit:dbunit:jar:2.4.8 (tes t), hsqldb:hsqldb:jar:1.8.0.7 (test), commons-lang:commons-lang:jar:2.3 (compile ), commons-io:commons-io:jar:1.4 (compile)]: Failed to read artifact descriptor for com.sun.xml.ws:jaxws-rt:jar:2.1.7: Could not transfer artifact com.sun.xml.w s:jaxws-rt:pom:2.1.7 from/to maven-repository.dev.java.net (http://download.java .net/maven/1/): No connector available to access repository maven-repository.dev .java.net (http://download.java.net/maven/1/) of type legacy using the available factories WagonRepositoryConnectorFactory -> [Help 1] {noformat} In m2eclipse, it's even more confusing !unresolved-deps.jpg!
