Maven 2 Mirror的陷阱

Maven 2 Mirror的陷阱

Maven 2的安装和使用虽然不是一点即用，但也不是很复杂。然而，这两天我新装Maven，刚刚过了mvn -version，尝试create maven project就出问题了。问题详情如下。

D:\mavenSample>mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app
[INFO] Scanning for projects...

开始以为是internet 代理设置有问题。网上也有帖子这么说。可是换到ADSL后，不用代理了，问题仍然存在。

几经周折后发现，原因在于我画蛇添足多加了几个镜像，其中有的镜像没有同步更新maven库。经过测试，如下maven 镜像工作正常：

<mirror>
<id>ibiblio.org</id>
<name>ibiblio Mirror of http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/</name>
<url>http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2</url>

<!-- these just point to ibiblio.org -->
<mirror>
<id>ibiblio.net</id>

<url>http://www.ibiblio.net/pub/packages/maven2</url>
<mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
<!-- United States, North Carolina Fast-->
</mirror>

而下面的Maven镜像都有问题。
