Version Range Specification
Hi,
I've got a problem - one of my projects is using openlazlo 3.2 - which stinks, as they MANUALLY changed dependencies, without any documentation about this, and they don't even provide any maven poms :-(
However, we have to use it, and I am trying to get it to run using Maven 2.
For OpenLazlo, I manually created a pom and installed it into my local repo. Along with other dependencies, it specifies:
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-httpclient</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-httpclient</artifactId>
<version>2.0-rc1</version>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
For whatever reason, Maven 2.08 isn't very impressed by version 2.0-rc1, and uses 3.0 instead. This however let's the openlazlo project fail. The only configuration I was able to run was using version 2.0-rc1.
So I read:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-enforcer-plugin/rules/versionRanges.html
and accordingly changed the version to:[2.0-rc1].
Now Maven 2 is even more unhappy:
------------------
[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.
No versions are present in the repository for the artifact with a range [2.0-rc1,2.0-rc1]
commons-httpclient:commons-httpclient:jar:null
from the specified remote repositories:
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2),
...
------------------
But WHY? If you browse to:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/commons-httpclient/commons-httpclient/2.0-rc1/
You can see it's def. there!!!
Also, I've got this file in my local repository!!! :-(
Any idea whats wrong here?
Thanks in advance, your help rules! :-)
Cheers,
Stefanie

Yes, should have mentioned that: of course you declare the correct
versions of the excluded dependencies (axis etc.) again in your own pom.
Glad to hear you found another solution, though!

Add the exclusion to openlaszlo and then ADD BACK the axis:axis
dependency manually in your own pom with whatever version you want to
use.

Therefore, I renamed my repo and just fed it with files that were not on the web - and - magically - it works now!!! Really weird!

Well, the easiest solution for now is to exclude tose dependencies from
openlaszlo:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.openlazslo</groupId>
<artifactId>openlaszo</artifactId>
<version>3.2</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>axis</groupId>
<artifactId>axis</artifactId>
</exclusion>

So it seems that the reason is:
[INFO] +- org.openlaszlo:openlaszlo:pom:3.2:compile
[INFO] | +- axis:axis:jar:1.4:runtime (version managed from 1.2.1; scope managed from compile)
For whatever reason Maven uses axis 1.4 instead of 1.2.1, and this then wants commons-httpclient 3.0
But in the openlazlo pom I definied:
<dependency>
<groupId>axis</groupId>
<artifactId>axis</artifactId>
<version>1.2.1</version>
</dependency>
I even tried <version>[1.2.1]</version>, which then fails:
No versions are present in the repository for the artifact with a range [1.2.1,1
.2.1]
axis:axis:jar:null
from the specified remote repositories:
central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2),
...
This is really weird! It DOES exist on repo1, and it even exists in my local repo. Last but not least, if you have a look at:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/axis/axis/1.4/axis-1.4.pom
That pom doesn't say a word about "commons-httpclient" - at all!!!
I am hopeless... :-(

This may be a bug where it can't satisfy the locked down version for some reason and the error isn't telling you the right thing. Lets work through it to see why and then maybe a jira will come from it.

Good point, will check that asap (when at work) - but even if -
if I tell Maven that it MUST use Version xy, shouldn't it behave as it was told?!
Also, why doesn't Maven accept the Syntax "[2.0-rc1]" - I also tried that for other dependencies, and it always said it couldn't find the version specified. Really strange!!! :-(
