Question

I am getting the below exception when I run my mvn install. I have even deleted the local repository and ran again getting same exception.

Answer 1

Maybe unrelated to the original reason in this question, but for those who would face same with gradle and local module dependency

dependencies {
    checkstyle project(":module")
}

this error could happen, if module doesn't contain group and version, so in the module/build.gradle just need to be specified

plugins {
    id 'java-library'
}

group = "com.example"
version = "master-SNAPSHOT"

Answer 2

From gsitgithub/find-currupt-jars.txt, the following command lists all the corrupted jar files in the repository:

find  /home/me/.m2/repository/ -name "*jar" | xargs -L 1 zip -T | grep error | grep invalid

You can delete the corrupted jar files, and recompile the project.

Example output:

warning [/cygdrive/J/repo/net/java/dev/jna/jna/4.1.0/jna-4.1.0.jar]:  98304 extra bytes at beginning or within zipfile
  (attempting to process anyway)
file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  98304
  (attempting to re-compensate)
zip error: Zip file invalid, could not spawn unzip, or wrong unzip (original files unmodified)
