[MINSTALL-178] Maven Doesn't Pick Locally Installed Package / Artifact

[jira-importer]

Surendra opened MINSTALL-178 and commented

Java Version - 11

mvn clean install is not picking up a locally installed snapshot artifact that is present in the .m2 folder.

It complains with the following warning and then start looking for this artifact in maven central -

 

[DEBUG]  Could not find metadata
<GROUP_ID>:<ARTIFACT_ID>:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT/maven-metadata.xml in local 

 

I checked .m2 directory and it has maven-metadata-local.xml, why does maven look for maven-metadata.xml file? It's a locally installed artifact and maven should be able to pick this up directly. Looks like I'm missing something.

Affects: 3.0.1

You should provide a sample project for this. Your information is very sparse.

Michael Osipov I don't have a sample project but I guess the problem statement is very clear. May I know what might cause this issue?

Michael Osipov commented

Even if the statement is clear, but the environment not.

Michael Osipov please help understand this maven error, when does it happen? Why does maven look for a maven-metadata.xml file?

surendra_lilly in your command example mvn clean install two Maven phase are executed: clean and install. Each phase can have configured many goal - some can be default ... but some can be added in your project.

So without simple example which reproduce your problem nobody is able to help.
