Suppose that you have a dependency that looks something like this:
<dependency> <groupId>foo</groupId> <artifactId>bar</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> </dependency>
that can't be resolved and the build fails with the error message below:
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project regression: Could not resolve dependencies for project se.sigma.eduational:example:jar:1.0: Could not find artifact foo:bar:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT in Sigma Internal Repository (http://mavenrepo:8080/archiva/repository/internal/) -> [Help 1] [ERROR] [ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e switch. [ERROR] Re-run Maven using the -X switch to enable full debug logging. [ERROR] [ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please read the following articles: [ERROR] [Help 1] http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/DependencyResolutionException
To upload the missing jar manually, do like this:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DgroupId=<group-id> -DartifactId=<artifact-id> -Dversion=<version> -Dpackaging=<packaging>
A real world example could be
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=C:\temp\myThirdPartLib.jar -DgroupId=foo -DartifactId=bar -Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=jar
Running it could look something like this:
C:\example>mvn install:install-file -Dfile=C:\temp\myThirdPartLib.jar -DgroupId=foo -DartifactId=bar -Dversion=1.0 -Dpackaging=jar [INFO] Scanning for projects...
