maven failing to resolve artifact that exists in *local* repository

[Ben Smith-Mannschott <bs...@gmail.com>]

I've seen this a number of times, and haven't yet figured out what's causing it:

$ mvn -o  install
...
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project MYPROJECT: Could not resolve
dependencies for project SOME:DEPENDENCY:jar:11.7-bb-SNAPSHOT: The
repository system is offline but the artifact junit:junit:jar:4.8.2 is
not available in the local repository. -> [Help 1]
...

$ find ~/.m2 -name "*junit*4.8.2*"
/home/bsmith/.m2/repository/junit/junit/4.8.2/junit-4.8.2.pom.sha1
/home/bsmith/.m2/repository/junit/junit/4.8.2/junit-4.8.2.pom
/home/bsmith/.m2/repository/junit/junit/4.8.2/junit-4.8.2.jar.sha1
/home/bsmith/.m2/repository/junit/junit/4.8.2/junit-4.8.2.jar

WTF?

I'm using maven 3.0.3. In this particular case I have *no*
settings.xml, so I'm getting whatever the defaults are.

Building works fine if I'm online, though it does go download
junit-4.8.2.jar in that case, despite the fact that it's already got a
copy of it.

Doing another offline build immediately after this successful online
build works. Wait a day or two, however, and I'm back to "I can't see
what's right in front of me." mode.

Ideas?

Sounds like http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5181

[Anders Hammar <an...@hammar.net>]

There was some recent discussion about offline and a bug in the Aether
that's used in Maven 3.0.3. It's fixed in newer Aether so you could
test manually upgrading Aether (replacing the Aether libs in the Maven
installation).
