Nexus and LDAP - JNDI-Problem while authenticating users against OpenLDAP Server

I am using Nexus repository manager (nexus.sonatype.org) with the open source LDAP plugin (code.google.com/p/nexus-ldap/) and I get an error indicating that the wrong protocol version is used (details below). All the plugin does is using the JNDI LDAP service provider to connect to my LDAP Server. If you look at the stack trace in the ne...

Getting Nexus to download dependencies from a repository with no .index file

I've just setup the latest version of Nexus for our company, and it's working great. We've added several 3rd party repositories, and one of them does not have an .index file present. So it appears that Nexus can't index it, nor can the local maven ask for deps in that repository. Definitely unfortunate. Is there any way around this a...

Failed to proxy to maven repo via Nexus

Hi all, I am working with Nexus free addition (1.3.6) and I am trying to add a proxy repository as described in the Nexus book - Google Caja: http://google-caja.googlecode.com/svn/maven. After adding a new proxy repository and configure the remote location, I tried to re-index the repository but could not see the related artifacts. wa...

Using Sonatype nexus in local network

I've successfully created a small software engineering environment (SEE) for Java applications that is - amongst other tools - based on maven and nexus. My actual problem is - not a real surprise - that nexus usually requires access to the internet to to get the requested artifacts from the central repositories. But the SEE has to be str...

maven deploy changed artifacts only

Hi, Im using maven 2.2 with nexus 1.4.0 Let's say I have a pom-structure like this (with corresponding versions) parentproj, v1.0.1 - childproj1, v1.0.2 - childproj2, v1.0.7 childproj1 and childproj2 represent different parts of the application (e g gui and backend) and I want to be able to keep their versions separate so that I ca...

Alternatives to Nexus Pro?

I've currently got the free Nexus deployed, and there are various infelicities involving authentication and staging. I am really allergic to buying a tool with a one-year term license where the price could go up arbitrarily in a year. Has anyone had success with any open source repo manager, or even one for money with a less frightening ...

How to Get Maven to Fail on Deploy when warned about "CHECKSUM FAILED"

On maven deploy maven attempts to retrieve the previous metadata form the repository. If it is corrupt maven issues a warning, calls the build successful but doesn't upload my artifact. This was caused by corruption in my repository and I'd like to either avoid it in future or make it more obvious with a build failure. Can I alter my ...

Nexus: removing repository

Hi, I accidently removed a hosted snapshot repository from Nexus containing a few artifacts needed by other developers on my team. Fine, I'll be able to recreate it fairly easy, but when I tried to add the repository again with the same name as the one I removed, the "Upload Artifact" tab did not show. I tried to clean the cache and rein...

How do I get my snapshots in Nexus to appear in the m2eclipse dependency search?

Hi, I've been working through the Nexus guide this weekend and I've got everything set up, to the point that I can publish a snapshot to my local nexus install. I can't seem to work out how to get m2eclipse to see the snapshot and offer it as an option in the Add Dependencies search panel. How do I do that? Thanks! In case it's of any...

Is it possible to index a legacy repository in nexus ?

I'm trying to migrate a large maven1 installation to maven2. I've installed nexus 1.5, created a legacy hosted repository and a m2 virtal view of it. Maven 2 build scripts can access the artifacts without any problem. The only thing which is not working is the nexus-index for the legacy repository. Now, the legacy hosted repository doe...

Device for Android development

Hi All, not much of a programming question, but development related still, I'm starting Android development and have been at it for just a little over a week. So far so go regarding progress, specially for someone who hadn't touched Java in his life (but have good C#, Objective-C, VB.NET and Fortran experience) As I'm looking into a te...

In Maven 2, Is it possible to specify a mirror for everything, but allow for failover to direct repositories?

I understand that part of the appeal of setting up a Maven mirror, such as the following: <mirror> <id>nexus</id> <name>Maven Repository</name> <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf> <url>http://server:8081/nexus/content/groups/public&lt;/url&gt; </mirror> ... is that the documentation states, "You can force Maven to use a single repository b...

Is there a limit to the size of an application in the Android Marketplace?

I know from reading this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1230457/is-there-a-size-limit-for-ota-android-market-downloads/1232145#1232145 That there wasn't a limit to the size of an application that could be downloaded over the air (OTA) but I wonder if a limit, like that imposed by the Apple App Store (20MB) exists now that the Nexu...

Installing fonts

I have a difficult time trying to install Hebrew/Arabic fonts on my level 7 (API 2.1) or "Nexus emulator". After rw mount/remount I can do it for level 3 devices, but not for Nexus! Why? What can be done? People using real physical devices already got this to work on the hardware. That's what must be done for some of us: We need syste...

How can I get nexus to proxy springsource maven repository on s3?

I have nexus 1.5.0 setup to proxy springsource repositories but it's not working. The repositories are on s3 that nexus doesn't seem to understand how to deal with that. What's the right pattern? Here are the repositories I'm told I need, but I cannot access the maven paths with in them http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundle...

Maven Repository proxies third-party repositories, does this produce traffic?

We have a public Sonatype Nexus Maven Repository which is a proxy for several third-party repositories, such as JBOSS or the Scala-Repo. Does the downloading of artifacts which are located in one of the proxied repositories (JBOSS for example) produce traffic on the sever which runs our repository? ...

Problem with dependencies in m2eclipse

Hi, I have a problem with m2eclipse and Nexus. Normally, when you create a new Maven Project in Eclipse, you can select an Archetype like maven-archetype-quickstart from the Nexus Indexer. Unfortunately, the Nexus Indexer doesn't show anything at all. But the worst part about all this is, that the "Add Dependency" menue doesn't work. (F...

How might maven's buildNumber metadata become inconsistent across multiple build agents?

We recently added a second build machine to our build environment and began experiencing very odd occasional build failures. I have two separate Maven build machines, A and B, each running Maven 2.2.1 and communicating to a shared Nexus 1.5.0 repository manager. My problem is that builds on B will occasionally fail because it refuses to...

Trouble with deploying Sonatype Nexus to Tomcat6 on Gentoo (log4j)

Hi there. I'm running a tomcat-6 server on Gentoo. I'm having trouble deploying Nexus to my tomcat server (nexus-war from the sonatype website, and tomcat6 via emerge).
