Answer 1

Seems like spring-plugin-core-1.2.0.RELEASE.jar got corrupted. Please delete it from your maven cache and try again.

Go to path where ever it is showing the exception and remove it from that location.

In your case, C:/Users/HP%20PC/.m2/repository/org/springframework/plugin/spring-plugin-core/1.2.0.RELEASE/spring-plugin-core-1.2.0.RELEASE.jar

spring-plugin-core-1.2.0.RELEASE.jar delete this jar from above location and clean your project once and then try to run the application. If this issue got resolved and if you face similar issue with any other jars, please delete those jars as well.

Answer 2

The jar file is corrupted.

Download it manually and override the old one.

It should work.

Answer 3

It displays on the console, which is the corrupted jar with its absolute path. Just delete the jar. Then do mvn clean install It'll work fine.

NB. If multiple jars are corrupted, clean up .m2 dir. then do mvn clean install.

Good luck!!!

Answer 4

I hovered on the error with Eclipse IDE and then the quick fix fixed all the error that I was encountering. Didn't delete anything from .m2

Answer 5

It looks like the Jar file is corrupt. Is it possible for you to execute this to get the MD5 sum?

md5 "/C/Users/HP PC/.m2/repository/org/springframework/plugin/spring-plugin-core/1.2.0.RELEASE/spring-plugin-core-1.2.0.RELEASE.jar"

The correct MD5 sum can be found in spring-plugin-core-1.2.0.RELEASE.jar.md5 and should be 4e6325e5ed2c1aa1949313c184d83640

Answer 6

This is because you might be having one of the jars in your maven cache corrupted, which is actually pointed out by IllegalStateException.

Try removing the corrupted jar from your maven cache and re-build your application.

In your case just delete this particular file and rebuild your application.

file:/C:/Users/HP%20PC/.m2/repository/org/springframework/plugin/spring-plugin-core/1.2.0.RELEASE/**spring-plugin-core-1.2.0.RELEASE.jar
