The normal reason why there is a pom in the repo but no jar is because the jar has a license that does not permit it to be redistributed by anyone but the producer. I expect this is the case here, ie that it is not legal for the oracle jars to be distributed from the apache servers. In this situation, the only thing that can be done is to manually install the file into your own repository. But then at least the apache-provided pom gets downloaded so the maven metadata gets properly set up for you. You could try discussing this with your Oracle sales representative. Or move to an open-source database.
