             Summary: Unable to configure Archive as mirror of Google Android repository - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/
                 Key: MRM-1991
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRM-1991
             Project: Archiva
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Fredrik Jonson


When trying to configure Archiva as a proxy for the Google Android repository I get the error message below:

   DefaultRemoteRepositoriesService [] - Connection exception: File: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/ does not exist   

Indeed that url responds with http status 404, but it is a artifact repository because maven can retrive artifacts from it, the following command succeeds:

 mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:3.1.1:get \
  -D artifact=androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.0:aar \
  -D remoteRepositories=https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/

Is it possible to configure Archiva to ingore the 404 on the base repository url path?

I cannot find a nexus index on that server, but there appears to be some kind of hint about which group id:s are offered via the url: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/master-index.xml  and from there taversable to specific groups, eg https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/androidx/appcompat/group-index.xml which can be found via https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/index.html

Is the Google Android repository incompatible with Archiva, or is it just a matter of insufficient configuration on my behalf?
