Scala sbt cannot find commons-logging-1.0.4.jar

Question

I am trying to get an open source project working with scala which is created using sbt.

I downloaded sbt and installed it. But when I try to run sbt from the command line, I get the following error.

:: summary summary :: WARNINGS [NOT FOUND] commons-logging # commons-logging; 1.0.4! commons-logging.jar (1ms)

==== Maven2 Local: tried

File: ///Users/jeremy/.m2/repository/commons-logging/commons-logging/1.0.4/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: FAILED DOWNLOADS :: :: ^ see resolution messages for details ^ :: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: commons-logging#commons-logging;1.0.4!commons-logging.jar ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Any ideas on how I can solve this.

I have scala 2.9.1 and sbt version 0.10.1

thanks

Answer 1

It worked for me after I deleted both ~/.m2/repository/commons-logging and ~/.ivy2/cache/commons-logging . If sbt does not detect either of these two paths, it will actually try to download the community registration package.

Sometimes maven does not load files correctly, and you only find the .pom file in the repository and the commons-logging-1.0.4.jar file. First I deleted ~ / .m2 / repository / commons-logging. I then downloaded the jar manually from http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=commons-logging/commons-logging/1.0.4/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar and finally installed the jar using the command mvn installation:

 mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=commons-logging -DartifactId=commons-logging -Dversion=1.0.4 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=commons-logging-1.0.4.jar

Are you behind the proxy server? If so, you may need to modify your sbt bat or sh script to pass proxy information to the JVM as follows:

 java -XX:MaxPermSize=96m -Xmx512m -Dhttp.proxyHost=my.proxy.server.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=1234 -jar sbt-launch-0.10.1.jar 

Answer 4

I don’t know what is the main cause of the problem. But I use a script that automatically installs and runs sbt; so I modified the script to load public information before running sbt.

The sbt launcher is here: https://gist.github.com/1274530

To run sbt, save the script somewhere in your $ PATH, make sure it is executable, and run it by typing sbt .

Add http://repo1.maven.org/maven to the maven.repo.remote property in the project.properties file. This will download the file from the maven2 repository.
