How to resolve failure of dependency error? [duplicate] - java

I imported my already working project on another computer and it started to download dependencies.
Apparently my internet connection crashed and now I get the following:
>Build errors for comics; org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException:

How do I force maven to update?

mvn clean install -U
-U means force update of snapshot dependencies.
Release dependencies will be updated this way if they have never been previously successfully downloaded. ref: https://stackoverflow.com/a/29020990/32453

If your local repository is somehow mucked up for release jars as opposed to snapshots (-U and --update-snapshots only update snapshots), you can purge the local repo using the following:
mvn dependency:purge-local-repository
You probably then want to clean and install again:
mvn dependency:purge-local-repository clean install
Lots more info available at https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/examples/purging-local-repository.html

-U seems to force update of all SNAPSHOT dependencies.
If you want to update a single dependency without clean or -U you could just remove it from your local repo and then build.
The example below if for updating slf4j-api 1.7.1-SNAPSHOT:
rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/org/slf4j/slf4j-api/1.7.1-SNAPSHOT
mvn compile

All the answers here didn't work for me. I used the hammer method:
find ~/.m2/ -name "*.lastUpdated" | xargs rm
That fixed the problem :-)

You can do effectively from Eclipse IDE. Of course if you are using it.
Project_Name->Maven->Update Project Configuration->Force Update of Snapshots/Releases

Just in case someone wants only update project's snapshot dependencies and doesn't want to install artifact:
mvn dependency:resolve -U
Don't forget to reimport dependencies in your IDE. In IDEA you need to right click on pom file and choose Maven -> Reimport

If you're unsure what is inside your local repository, I recommend to fire a build with the option:
-Dmaven.repo.local=localrepo
That way you'll ensure to build in a cleanroom environment.

In my case first I did was:
mvn clean install -U
Still it was showing same error then I closed project and again reopened it. Finally worked.

If you are using eclipse IDE then :
Select Project.
Press alt+F5, window for Update Maven Project will pop up.
Check - Force Update of Snapshots/releases and click OK.
If Using Intellij IDE
go to settings/Maven
check Always update snapshots

I used the IntelliJ IDE and I had a similar problem and to solve I clicked in "Generate Sources and Update Folders for All Projects" in Maven tab.

Previous versions of maven did not force the check for missing releases when used -U with mvn clean install, only the snapshots, though newer version supports this.
For someone still struggling with previous version, following can be helpful-
On Windows:
cd %userprofile%\.m2\repository
for /r %i in (*.lastUpdated) do del %i
On Linux:
find ~/.m2 -name "*.lastUpdated" -exec grep -q "Could not transfer" {} \; -print -exec rm {} \;
Whenever maven can't download dependencies for any reason (connectivity/not exists etc), it will add the ".error=Could not transfer artifact" in dependency-name.lastUpdate file in respective folder under $home/.m2 directory. Removing these files will force maven to try fetching the dependencies again.

mvn clean install -e -U -Dmaven.test.skip=true
-e Detailed exception
-U forced update
-DskipTests does not execute test cases, but compiles test case classes to generate corresponding class files under target/test classes.
-Dmaven.test.skip=true, do not execute test cases or compile test case classes.Using maven. test. skip not only skips running unit tests, but also skips compiling test code.
A small suggestion. If you use the IntelliJ Idea compiler, it is recommended to clean the cache

I've got the error in an other context.
So my solution might be useful to others who stumple upon the question:
The problem:
I've copied the local repository to another computer, which has no connection to a special repository.
So maven tried to check the artifacts against the invalid repository.
My solution:
Remove the _maven.repositories files.

You need to check your settings.xml file under <maven_home>/conf directory.

This is one of the most annoying things about Maven. For me the following happens: If I add a dependency requesting more dependencies and more and more but have a slow connection, it seams to stop while downloading and timing out. While timing out all dependencies not yet fetched are marked with place holders in the .m2 cache and Maven will not (never) pick it up unless I remove the place holder entry from the cache (as other stated) by removing it.
So as far as I see it, Maven or more precise the Eclipse Maven plugin has a bug regarding this. Someone should report this.

It's important to add that the main difference of running mvn with -U and without -U is that -U will override your local SNAPSHOT jars with remote SNAPSHOT jars.
Local SNAPSHOT jars created from local mvn install in cases where you have other modules of your proj that generate jars.

For fixing this issue from Eclipse:
1) Add below dependency in Maven pom.xml and save the pom.xml file.
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.thoughtworks.xstream/xstream -->
<dependency>
<groupId>com.thoughtworks.xstream</groupId>
<artifactId>xstream</artifactId>
<version>1.3.1</version>
</dependency>
2) Go to project >> Maven >> Update Project
select the project and click OK.
3) Optional step, if it's not resolved till step 2 then do below step after doing step-1
Go to project >> Maven >> Update Project >> check in the checkbox 'Force Update of Snapshots/Releases'
select the project and click OK.

-U is used to force update maven Repo.
Use
mvn -U clean install

I've got the same error with android-maps-utils dependency. Using aar type package in dependency section solve my problem.
By default type is jar so It might be checked what type of dependency in repository is downloaded.

I tried all the answers here but nothing seemed to work. Restarted my computer first then ran mvn clean install -U. That solved my problem.

What maven does is, it downloads all your project's dependencies into your local repo (.m2 folder). Because of the internet causing issues with your local repo, you project is facing problems. I am not sure if this will surely help you or not but you can try deleting all the files within the repository folder inside the .m2 folder. Since there would be nothing in the local repo, maven would be forced to download the dependencies again, thus forcing an update.
Generally, the .m2 folder is located at c:users:[username]:.m2

after using mvn clean install -U run as maven test also and after that update your project using maven-update project
this works in my case

I had this problem for a different reason. I went to the maven repository https://mvnrepository.com looking for the latest version of spring core, which at the time was 5.0.0.M3/ The repository showed me this entry for my pom.xml:
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework/spring-core -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
<version>5.0.0.M3</version>
</dependency>
Naive fool that I am, I assumed that the comment was telling me that the jar is located in the default repository.
However, after a lot of head-banging, I saw a note just below the xml saying "Note: this artifact it located at Alfresco Public repository (https://artifacts.alfresco.com/nexus/content/repositories/public/)"
So the comment in the XML is completely misleading. The jar is located in another archive, which was why Maven couldn't find it!

We can force to get latest update of release and snapshot repository with below command :
mvn --update-snapshots clean install

I had the same error and running mvn install -U and then running mvn install worked for me.

mvn clean install -U doesn't work. However mvn -U clean followed by mvn clean install does.

Maven on Jenkins Only Pulls from Remote Repo

Any help information would be greatly appreciated. I have a maven project that I need to build. It comes with a *.jar in the lib directory that I need to install first and add it to the local repo.
On Jenkins, subsequent build attempts ("clean install" or "clean package") fail.
I install the jar with:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=filename.jar -DgroupId=group -DartifactId=artifact -Dversion=version# -Dpackaging=jar
This adds the dependency to /var/lib/jenkins/.m2/repository.
But during subsequent builds ("clean install" or "clean package"), this repository is never referenced in the stacktrace. Instead, I get:
Could not find artifact group:artifact:jar:#.# in AsposeJavaAPI (https://repository.aspose.com/repo/)
I wonder if anyone has an idea of what could be causing this? Jenkins obviously can identify the local repo, but it fails whenever there is read, rather than a write, attempt.
Jenkins ver. 2.222.4
Maven Integration 3.6 Plugin
Thank you for any help that can be provided.

Maven Dependencies are not installing in eclipse

I am using the maven embedded eclipse.
Tried :
Deleting the whole m2 repository.
Maven->Update Project.
Run as -> Maven Build
User settings file does not exist(Please don't tell me it has to something with this file)
settings.Xml file
This file is only required if you are using a proxy and i am not
I have every dependency present in pom.xml file of my project but still eclipse is not able to import all these dependencies in the project
I have attached the photo below. Please help me to resolve my issue
mvn dependency:tree
Maven Dependencies
POM.xml file
List of dependency present in pom file of my project
None of the methods mentioned above worked so please help me to solve this issue.
Is there anything related to maven or eclipse version ?
When you execute mvn dependency:tree result shows an error related to "i cannot obtain some jar", it may be due to private reporitory.
If you are working with private repository, make sure you configure access in $HOME/.m2/settings.xml
On another hand I see you are working with snapshots. If you are trying to bind projects you have in your local host machine, ensure you are executing mvn install (or better mvn source:jar install) sucessfully and your system's maven is pointing the same .m2 path that refers Eclipse maven plugin
It seems using the Spring framework Maven repository via HTTP instead of HTTPS causing this issue.
In your pom.xml file replace http://maven.springframework.org with https://maven.springframework.org.

The difference between invoke maven directly in shell and invoke it from intellij IDEA

Edit 3:
I also tried to set maven proxy through java option parameters mentioned at this thread.
Edit 2:
I'm sure intellij idea are using same settings.xml, same maven binary and the same local repository as system maven.
Edit 1:
I tried to check build log of each workload, the main difference is about how to invoke maven at the very beginning of build log.
For intellij idea, it's like below:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_101\bin\java.exe" -Dmaven.multiModuleProjectDirectory=C:\Users\eugene\IdeaProjects\alluxio -Dmaven.home=C:\apache-maven-3.5.4-bin\apache-maven-3.5.4 -Dclassworlds.conf=C:\apache-maven-3.5.4-bin\apache-maven-3.5.4\bin\m2.conf "-Dmaven.ext.class.path=C:\Program Files\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA\plugins\maven\lib\maven-event-listener.jar" -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -classpath C:\apache-maven-3.5.4-bin\apache-maven-3.5.4\boot\plexus-classworlds-2.5.2.jar org.codehaus.classworlds.Launcher -Didea.version2019.2.4 -DskipTests=true -T 2C clean install -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip -Dfindbugs.skip -Dcheckstyle.skip -Dlicense.skip
For system shell, maven just launched without this invoking info.
I'm using maven to build a project Alluxio from source code.
I tried both Windows 10 and Ubuntu and found same issue when using intellij idea, let me clarify it into details.
OS: windows 10/ Ubuntu 18.04
Maven: 3.5.4
Build command: mvn -T 2C clean install -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip -Dfindbugs.skip -Dcheckstyle.skip -Dlicense.skip
The Alluxio can be built successfully using maven 3.5.4 directly but failed with several errors using intellij idea. What makes me confused is that I configured intellij idea to use system maven 3.5.4 and used exactly same build command. Why errors happened here but not in system shell.
The error I met is like:
Failure to find com.google.guava:listenablefuture:jar:sources:9999.0-empty-to-avoid-conflict-with-guava in https://repo1.maven.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced
And also like:
sourceFile C:\Users\eugene\IdeaProjects\alluxio\table\server\underdb\target\alluxio-table-server-underdb-2.2.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar does not exist
The method used to trigger maven build from intellij idea:
Click maven icon at right top corner
Click Execute Maven Goal
Input mvn -T 2C clean install -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip -Dfindbugs.skip -Dcheckstyle.skip -Dlicense.skip and enter to launch build
The maven settings in intellij idea is as default except change the maven binary from build-in binary to system maven 3.5.4.
Thanks for your help in advance.
I have seen two issues that will produce an error message like you see and it has nothing to do with IntelliJ.
The first occurs when Maven fails to successfully download an artifact from a repository (e.g., network interruption). It will mark the artifact as failed and will refuse to retry until some period lapses. Cleaning your local Maven cache or removing that artifact's folder will fix this issue.
The second occurs when two separate Maven builds attempt to download the same artifact from different repositories. Many years ago, Maven had a problem with people building modified versions of open-source projects (e.g., Apache Commons) and publishing them in a publicly available repository. I don't remember the details but this caused lots of issues. Maven now records the repository used to fetch an artifact. When two Maven projects use different repositories, the second one built will fail because the repository does not match. I had this occur when switching to a private repository, Artifactory, and not having all my projects migrated yet.
Since you are attempting to build the same project with two tools, your issue appears to be a variant of the second issue. I suspect that IntelliJ is using a different settings.xml than what you have available from the command line and that IntelliJ is using different repositories. Repositories can be specified in the settings.xml as well as the project's POM.
Try deleting your local cache and building from IntelliJ first. If it succeeds and then the shell build fails, this is your problem.
Update: See this answer for more details on why Maven started tracking the repository but note the the tracking file is now called _remote.repositories.

MVN install, cannot find artifact in local repository

I did mvn install and get this error message
Failed to execute goal on project core: Could not resolve dependencies for project test:core:jar:2.0.1-SNAPSHOT: Could not find artifact lib-net:lib-net:jar:1.0.8 in central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)
this dependency is a Project of mine, which is available in the local repository ~/.m2
so I tried mvn install -o to force maven to use my local repository, and I get this
Failed to execute goal on project core: Could not resolve dependencies for project test:core:jar:2.0.1-SNAPSHOT: The repository system is offline but the artifact lib-net:lib-net:jar:1.0.8 is not available in the local repository.
I tried to delete my local repository and install everything again, but it doesn't solve my problem!
Any sugestions?
The problem is with maven version. I had the same issue on my Jenkins machine. I followed these steps and it resolved my issue:
Delete the specific older libraries in ~/.m2/
Change the version of maven to apache-maven-3.5.0
Re-run the maven goals
Think I know way how to do it properly
Download sources of your library locally
Go to ~/.m2/ and search for your lib
Delete it from here
perform "mvn clean install" for your library
search for your lib in ~/.m2/
try to "mvn clean install" on your main project
... ?
Profit
If it will no work, check that you use correct artifact id and group id.
