Maven not downloading jars behind proxy

Question

Maven is unable to download jar (s) (Dependency) behind proxy.

Here is my pom.xml

Answer 1

• I have encountered the same problem.
• And I turned back to older versions of maven which is 3.1.0.

• I was trying to use a http proxy to get reached to maven https repository.

  Here, there is a issue for newer versions in maven's jira.
  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROXY-27

Answer 2

Try this, if 1 does not work try 2, then 3:

1) First update the project, Alt-F5

2) Then go to your repo and blow away the directory for that dependency which should be in the directory C:\Users\faizanmubasher.m2\repository\org\springframework\boot\spring-boot-autoconfigure\2.0.2.RELEASE Then do an Alt-F5 again.

3) If this fails try a mvn clean install -U from the command line.

You can test your maven to maven central repo connectivity with the following command:

mvn archetype:generate

You should see over 2000 archetypes returned
