Tibor Digana commented on MINSTALL-54:
--------------------------------------

If you often see this issue and you have multithreaded build system, it means you have the problem of design because you have a common local repo. In my experiences this has nevere happened because every run of job in Jenkins was designed in Groovy Jenkinsfile in the way that local repositories were isolated in each run. Therefore no shared artifacts across builds and jobs, which is the best practice. I don't think the file locking is the way still because shared artifacts of jobs and builds override artifacts of your current job by foreign job and the build shows you fake result.

> 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

> {{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
