Hi, all.
I understood that it should be possible to do a Maven build offline,
that is, with no connection to any repository except the local
repository. I understand that all necessary artifacts have to already
be in the local repository.
In fact, I did this exercise a couple of months ago with great success.
But Maven seems to have changed in the meantime.
I have a situation where I just did a build using a local repository.
The build succeeded. From that success, I assumed that all necessary
artifacts had been downloaded to the local repository. I then tried to
repeat that build using the "-o" parameter to Maven, using that very
same local repository. The build failed because some artifacts were
missing. I re-ran it with " -o -e " as recommend, but got no additional
information. Can someone explain what is going on? Should I file a JIRA
report?
I received the messages below. Three artifacts are missing. In all
three cases the pom file and its checksum file are present, but no
corresponding jar file. In the dependency paths to the three jar files,
some of the artifacts have jar files in the local repository and some
have only the pom file. But if the jar files are needed, how could
the original build have run successfully? Also, my repository does not
have dummy:dummy. Can anyone explain what dummy:dummy is?
I could start downloading things manually, but (a) I thought it should
not be necessary, and (b) I could end up having to download dozens of
things manually, as this is a very large build.
Thanks for any insights that could be provided.
