Andrew, This is an update to my last posting.
I discovered that if I add another snapshot repository to my pom I can now download 2.0-beta-4-SNAPSHOT and its dependencies. <pluginRepository> <id>snapshots2</id> <url>http://snapshots.maven.codehaus.org/maven2</url> </pluginRepository> However I now get the same error that you described. [ERROR] BUILD ERROR [INFO] --------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] Can't release project due to non released dependencies : org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:maven-plugin:2.0-beta-4-SN APSHOT You said you rebuilt this right? Now I recall that someone in this mail list said that it could be referenced directly from the snapshot repo. Is there some way in maven to tell it that this snapshot is okay and release using it? After all it's not a runtime dependency. Any ideas? -dh -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Kreps [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 8:04 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: why does my release fail? I'm also using the Release plugin 2.0-beta-4-SNAPSHOT code. I did have to recompile it without the SNAPSHOT in the version name, since the release plugin wouldn't allow me to generate an actual release with SNAPSHOT plugin code. I got a good laugh out of that one. I can't explain why the release command worked once, but I can tell you what's wrong with that command. The -o flag disables the connection to the server, therefore the release plugin cannot download the needed dependency. Also, the apache.org downtime never affected the primary maven repository mirror, www.ibiblo.org. If you remove the -o flag, the download should work properly. If it doesn't, you should check your mirror configuration. This repository is running just fine: http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/ .
