Maven failing to resolve recursive dependencies with multiple repositories

Question

I\'m new to maven so there must be something I don\'t understand. But, I\'ve added multiple repositories to resolve multiple dependencies in my POM file. For some reason i

Answer 1

Just got this problem: log4j version 1.2.15 is causing this problem. Using log4j version 1.12.16 removes this problem. see Missing artifact com.sun.jdmk:jmxtools:jar:1.2.1

Answer 2

I think download jmx1.2.1 will help you :-), try upload it to your nexus

Answer 3

It looks like you are running Maven 3+ and you are trying to access a legacy repository.

One annoying but well documented change for Maven 3 was removing support for legacy repositories. You can check out this compatibility note and others here

If you are not depending completely on Maven 3 you can reduce to Maven 2.2.1 and this legacy issue should go away or follow what the link says and create a

Maven 2.x compatible view of the legacy repository

Answer 4

You should use 2 repository like bellow:
<repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>repository.jboss.org-public</id>
            <name>JBoss repository</name>
            <url>https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
        </repository>
        <repository>
            <id>maven-restlet</id>
            <name>Public online Restlet repository</name>
            <url>http://maven.restlet.org</url>
        </repository>
</repositories>

Answer 5

I found two solution for the problem , both are equally effective .

1. Download jar and install locally

   mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DgroupId=<group-id> -DartifactId=<artifact-id> -Dversion=<version> -Dpackaging=<packaging>

---

2 . Exclusion of dependencies

`<dependency> .... <exclusions> <exclusion> <groupId> ... <artifactId>...</exclusion>`

maven dependency exclusions

Answer 6

I may be a little late to the party, but someone using log4j 1.2.15 may search for it in the future. The problem is resolved with this:

<dependency>
        <groupId>log4j</groupId>
        <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.15</version>
        <exclusions>
            <exclusion>
                <groupId>javax.jms</groupId>
                <artifactId>jms</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
            <exclusion>
                <groupId>com.sun.jmx</groupId>
                <artifactId>jmxri</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
            <exclusion>
                <groupId>com.sun.jdmk</groupId>
                <artifactId>jmxtools</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
    </dependency>
