How does maven find the "real" central repository even when I overrided the "central" repository in my profile

Hi there,

I set up a mirror of repo1.maven.org/maven2 for my group and added the following profile to the settings.xml file. The key point here is that I overrided the "central" repository with my mirror, so that the "maven"s using this profile will go to myrepo instead of repo1.maven.org/maven2 to find artifacts.

It worked as expected: all the artifacts were downloaded from my mirror. And I checked mvn help:effective-pom. The effective-pom was also as expected.

But when I tried "archetype:create" goal, maven tried to connect the "real" central (repo1.maven.org) and downloaded artifacts although some of those artifacts were available in the mirror.

Can anyone tell me how maven can find the "real" central repository even when the original central in the SuperPOM is overrided in my profile?

Thanks!

Here is my profile in "settings.xml":
       <profile>
            <id>office</id>
            <repositories>
                  <repository>
                        <id>central</id>
                        <url>http://myrepo/mvncentral</url>
                        <snapshots>
                              <enabled>true</enabled>
                        </snapshots>
                        <releases>
                              <enabled>true</enabled>
                         </releases>
                  </repository>
            </repositories>
            <pluginRepositories>
                  <pluginRepository>
                        <id>central</id>
                        <url> http://myrepo/mvncentral </url>
                        <snapshots>
                              <enabled>false</enabled>
                        </snapshots>
                        <releases>
                              <enabled>true</enabled>
                        </releases>
                  </pluginRepository>
            </pluginRepositories>
      </profile>

Unless there is a "project" (== a pom.xml in the current directory or
specified with -f) Maven does not "see" your settings.xml file.

You can use -DremoteRepositories=... to tell the Archetype plugin where to look.
