Maven: Unable to download spring-ws-2.0.2.RELEASE.jar from central repository?

[patb]

Hello,

I would like to add the Spring WS dependency to my maven pom.xml file like so:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.ws</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-ws</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.2.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

I got the above code from this webpage:

• http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/or.../2.0.2.RELEASE

When I got to

• http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/sp...2.0.2.RELEASE/

I can see that Spring WS 2.0.2 RELEASE is there, but with a "...-all.jar" file.

When I try to build my project with maven, I got the following error:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Could not find artifact org.springframework.ws:spring-ws:jar:2.0.2.RELEASE
in central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)

The contents of my local repository ("org\springframework\ws\spring-ws\2.0.2.RELEASE") for Spring WS looks as this:

_maven.repositories (1 kb)
spring-ws-2.0.2.RELEASE.jar.lastUpdated (1 kb)
spring-ws-2.0.2.RELEASE.pom (15 kb)
spring-ws-2.0.2.RELEASE.pom.sha1 (1 kb)

I'm really stuck here - I hope anyone has an idea how to solve this.


Thanks a lot for your help!


UPDATE

The initial Maven error message, when first downloading the Spring WS jar, is the follwoing:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project ABC: Could not resolve dependencies for project 
ABC:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Could not find artifact org.springframework.ws:spring-ws:jar:2.0.2.RELEASE
in central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2) -> [Help 1]

Maybe this helps?

I'm sorry for bumping this thread, but I just cannot manage to get the Spring WS JAR file via the central maven repository.

Am I doing anything terribly wrong here?

Thank you!

Had the same problem, so I tried a different dependency that seemed to work:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.ws</groupId>
<artifactId>org.springframework.ws</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

2.0.2.RELEASE should also work. Not sure why the original maven snippet doesn't work.

Hello temadison,

thanks a lot for your answer. Unfortunately, your <dependency> does not work for me, maven gives me the following output:

>mvn test

Any ideas? I just can't believe that no one uses Spring WS with maven, so I think I must do something really wrong :-/

This gave me a headache as well. I guess that with the latest spring ws version one is suppossed to use the spring-ws-core artifact instead of the spring-ws artifact. It's really a shame that there is no reference for this on the spring ws website ;-(

		
<!-- spring ws -->
		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework.ws</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-ws-core</artifactId>
			<version>2.0.2.RELEASE</version>
		</dependency>

Thanks kai for his/her answer. That really helped me
And It's easy about why, you guys can check "spring-ws-2.1.3.RELEASE.pom" in http://repo.springsource.org/release...2.1.3.RELEASE/, The <packaging>'s value is "pom", the normal dependency which can get a jar should be <packaging>jar</packaging>, so if you want to make spring-ws is correct in <dependency> you should code pom.xml like

<dependency>
		    <groupId>org.springframework.ws</groupId>
    		<artifactId>spring-ws</artifactId>
    		<version>2.1.3.RELEASE</version>
                <type>pom</type>
		</dependency>

But it would not get the jar, so that your compile progress would not successfully as well.
