Yes. I think you are right. I see that now. i'll see what I can do.

Same here

It looks like that plugin longer is available. This no longer builds for me either. I have reached out to the JabRef team asking for assistance / clarification on this plugin.

--- 2 hours later --- I did not make any changes but after failing many times the build has been successful several times.
I wonder if the developer adjusted one of the gradle plugins...

I don't know if this is a risky situation and I need to do more research on it.. or if it builds, it builds :)

In the meantime, could you please try again? It is working for me now with no changes and I have cleared the cache and rebuilt successfully a few times.

Still getting a timeout on https://jitpack.io/com/github/koppor/gradle-modules-plugin/gradle-modules-plugin/jitpack-SNAPSHOT/gradle-modules-plugin-jitpack-33f60fd812-1.pom

EDIT: Tried a wget and it worked eventually; took 2 minutes. Maybe timeout can be changed to ~5min.

Ok, it built for me. Something is janky with downloading that one file. I added -Dorg.gradle.internal.http.socketTimeout=60000 -Dorg.gradle.internal.http.connectionTimeout=60000 to the gradle line

I had more successful rebuilds last night and again this morning with no changes. (US ET) Should I add the timeout parameters for a better chance of successful builds and resubmit the PR? It has been working for me, but obviously is not consistent.

[malfisya]

It still keeps failing for me. The plugin is still the problem, maybe my location is the cause. So, I cannot verify the functionality of the package. If other staff can verify that jabref working properly, I will leave the review to them.

Timed out for me as well. In Sweden.

@A108384 add the timeout flags and I'll give it a shot on the build server. Let's try it

I have finally updated the PR. It still failed to build a few times yesterday before it was successful. But then it has built successfully several times since.

I also found this except in the jitpack.io FAQ

How do I resolve Read timed out error in Gradle?

Since version 4.3 Gradle has reduced http timeouts which can cause downloads to time out when JitPack waits for a build to finish. To increase timeouts add these settings to your gradle.properties file:

systemProp.org.gradle.internal.http.connectionTimeout=180000
systemProp.org.gradle.internal.http.socketTimeout=180000

Therefore I used 180000 for the Timeout parameters.

Successful build!
