Maven does not get latest snapshot from repository

[an...@nsn.com]

Hi,
 
I've a weird (for me) build problem. There's an updated snapshot version
on the repository, but maven is not pulling that down for the build, but
rather uses my local version. Under which conditions can this happen,
and how do I resolve it (except for maybe trashing the whole
.m2/repository).

What's the repository metadata, that is supposed to be missing?

Hi,

Thanks for your help. Actually the issue was a little tricky. Someone
thought it might be a good idea to deploy by ftp-ing the directory from
the local repository. That also caused the warning about the missing
repository metadata. 

After I removed the directory from the remote repository and deployed
again, it works as expected.

Without knowing when you executed builds and when the snapshot was
deployed, it's hard to say exactly what's happening.  My guess is that
the snapshot was not there the first time you built today, and the
default repository update policy of "once per day" is in effect.

Try adding -U to the command line and see if it downloads.  If that
doesn't work, deleting the directory tree from your local repo
certainly should.  (You don't have to delete the entire thing.)

Before you do that, can you watch network traffic for a build and see
if Maven is really making calls out to the repositories when it
complains that the metadata is missing?

ISTR complaints that Maven would download a snapshot from a repo even
when there is a newer snapshot locally, (which is the reverse of your
situation,) so keep an eye on that as well.
