Maven artifacts cannot be resolved

Question

I have added spring and jboss repositories to my pom.xml as below:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0

But when I build, I get an error message:

 The following artifacts could not be resolved: org.springframework:spring:jar:3.0.6.RELEASE, org.hibernate:hibernate:jar:3.5.4-Final: Could not find artifact org.springframework:spring:jar:3.0.6.RELEASE in jsf20 (http://download.java.net/maven/2/) -> [Help 1] 

This is similar to maven only for the first repository, not spring and hibernation.

Update: Ran with the -X and -e options on the command line, but not very useful from what I can say: http://pastebin.com/c7nPzBc2

Answer 1

This error simply says that it cannot be found in the java.net repository, it must continue and check the rest until it is found by the one who has it. You should be able to safely ignore this.

Also, the URL you provided for spring seems to be dead, it gives me a 500 error when I try to get there directly. In any case, its useless ones, like spring artifacts, can be found in the central center of maven (at least through 3.0.6, which you specify as your dependency).

After a little research, I found that spring did not publish the spring artifact since 2.5.6 . You will need to specify each artifact individually. For example:

 <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId> <version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-jdbc</artifactId> <version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId> <version>3.0.6.RELEASE</version> </dependency> ...
