Maven build scenarios to resolve custom plugin version when using an alternative repository
I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer. I'm experiencing an scenario where my Maven build fails to resolve a custom plugin version. I have a plugin defined in my `pom.xml` like this: ```xml <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>com.example</groupId> <artifactId>my-custom-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.1.0</version> </plugin> </plugins> </build> ``` However, when I try to build my project, I get the following behavior: ``` Failed to execute goal com.example:my-custom-plugin:2.1.0:some-goal (default) on project my-project: Plugin com.example:my-custom-plugin:2.1.0 was not found in the local repository ``` I noticed that I recently switched the repository to a private Nexus repository, and the plugin is indeed present there. I confirmed that I have the repository configured correctly: ```xml <repositories> <repository> <id>nexus</id> <url>http://my-nexus-repo/repository/maven-public/</url> </repository> </repositories> ``` I have tried running `mvn clean install -U` to force updates, and I've verified that the plugin exists in the Nexus repository by browsing it directly. The `settings.xml` file also points to the correct Nexus server and has the necessary credentials. Additionally, I tested the build with `debug` logging enabled, and it shows: ``` [DEBUG] Retrieving plugin from the remote repository nexus: http://my-nexus-repo/repository/maven-public/ ``` Despite all of this, Maven just doesn't seem to be able to resolve the plugin version. Is there a caching scenario I might be missing, or do I need to perform additional configuration steps to ensure that Maven can find and resolve this custom plugin? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm working in a Debian environment. Could this be a known issue? The stack includes Xml and several other technologies. What are your experiences with this?
