Why are alternate repositories so hard to configure
I have the following
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>sonatype</id>
<name>Sonatype Maven OSS Repository</name>
<releases>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</releases>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
<url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
But when I run maven I get
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.3:site (default-site) on
project csharp-windows-elevate: Execution default-site of goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.3:site failed: Plugin
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.3 or one of its
dependencies could not be resolved: Could not find artifact
net.trajano.wagon:wagon-git:jar:1.0.1-SNAPSHOT in apache.snapshots
(http://repository.apache.org/snapshots) -> [Help 1]
/*Why in the world is it looking in
http://repository.apache.org/snapshots ???*/
So, then I configure nexus to mirror
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public and I add to my settings.xml
<mirrors>
<mirror>
<id>nexus</id>
<mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
<url>http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
</mirror>
</mirrors>
and then I get
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.3:site (default-site) on
project csharp-windows-elevate: Execution default-site of goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.3:site failed: Plugin

dependencies could not be resolved: Could not find artifact
net.trajano.wagon:wagon-git:jar:1.0.1-SNAPSHOT in nexus
(http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public) -> [Help 1]
I know this to be a lie because when I go through the nexus UI I can
clearly see the artifact in question in both the nexus index and
storage. However, for some reason, the artifact pom.xml is neither in
the index nor storage. When I go to
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public/net/trajano/wagon/wagon-git/1.0.1-SNAPSHOT/
I can clearly see the pom.xml with the other files that nexus has
downloaded. /*Why is nexus refusing to download the pom.xml?*//*
*/

Thanks Frank, I added what you suggested to my settings.xml, but the
problem turned out to be that I forgot to add sonatype-oss to the public
group.
I have been caught by that problem in the past, as I recall, and a
better UI would ask you if you wanted to add a newly created remote repo
to public when you created it.
Cheers, Eric

Yes, the maven-site-plugin was referencing apache/snapshots in its
<dependencyManagement> section. Yet another tangle with 'dependency hell'

Taking apache-snapshots offline in my Nexus configuration was one of the
first things I did, but the problem was stemming from maven-site-plugin.

In my case, I forgot to add sonatype-oss to the public group in Nexus. A
better Nexus GUI would ask the user if they wanted to add a newly
created remote repo to the public group. I have been caught by this
problem more than once, and the diagnostics around the problem are not
very good.

This repository is defined in a pom.xml of a dependency.

apache-snapshots is not in the public group by default, although it is in
Nexus as a repository. You can edit the public group members and add
apache-snapshots as a member.

Search indexes have nothing to do with an artifact being able to be
downloaded.
