how exactly are you doing the upload? There is maven metadata that needs to be updated, if you are not using a repository manager that knows how to do this, and are instead uploading by hand, then this would completely explain your problems -Stephen > I do that, because I want to simulate the situation on the build server, on > which I cant just compile the latest version of my plugin. > Now when I try to build project X with >>mvn package -U, I get something like > [INFO] snapshot group:my-plugin:1.0-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from > m2repo-plugins > but nothing is downloaded, I checked the .jar in my local repository, but > it's unchanged. > > I found that it's possible to recreate (or something like that) the local > repository with >>mvn dependency:purge-local-repository > However, this only seems to work if I create a <dependency/>-entry for my > plugin and even if I do that, it's not really a good solution, since I > cannot run a command like that on our build server. > > Then I found this issue: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2839 > It's a bit different than my problem, so I'm not sure if I'm actually facing > the same problem. > So my question is: Is there any quick solution to this problem, did I miss > something > or do I just have to wait for the Fix Version 2.2.x as described in the > issue? > > Thanks, > Sven > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
