MyEclipse.
Failure to download the files required by Maven project.
Behind proxy.I needed to create a file called settings.xml in [user]/.m2 directory and add in the “bits” for the proxy:
http://maven.apache.org/settings.htmlWhy didn’t MyEclipse put out a useful hint something like:
Timeout/Failure to download ‘stuff’ from maven; if you are behind a proxy you may want to set up a file called settings.xml in your maven cache [user]/.m2/settings.xml (See: http://maven.apache.org/settings.html).OR MyEclipse could offer to create a file (settings-copy-from.myeclipse), for you based, on your network settings in the network settings tab…
Tony,
I”m sorry you had this problem.
I’ve raised an enhancement request to see if anything can be done to help, though I’m not sure it can. The problem is occurring within maven execution and may not be visible to our tooling. Proxy information is needed when running maven outside of MyEclipse, for maven to download dependencies and plug-ins, so this is an issue that would occur regardless of the maven tooling.
