(long tweet) Failure to find javax.transaction:jta:jar:1.0.1B
Case
Getting and building a project got on the internet, I got the following stractrace:
[java]
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project skillsPoC: Could not resolve dependencies for project lalou.jonathan.poc:skillsPoC:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Failure to find javax.transaction:jta:jar:1.0.1B in http://192.168.0.39:8081/nexus/content/repositories/central/ was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of localRepository has elapsed or updates are
forced -> [Help 1]
[ERROR][/java]
Actually, the needed JAR (javax.transaction:jta:jar:1.0.1B) is depended on by Spring 2.5.
Quick fix
- Add the following repository in your
pom.xml:[xml] <repository>
<id>java.net.m2</id>
<name>java.net m2 repo</name>
<url>http://download.java.net/maven/2</url>
</repository>[/xml] - Unlike what I could read on Padova’s JUG blog, you need not get and install manually the jar any longer.
- Possibly, you may have to disable the block related to the
<mirrors>in yoursettings.xml.
