I installed the latest Nexus 1.9 on to my tomcat instance. Here are the steps I took.
- Copied War file to Tomcat Webapps directory.
- Started Tomcat
- Logged into Nexus Admin Console.
- went through and set all the proxy repositories "Download Remote Indexes Settings" from False to True and saved settings.
- Reindexed all repositories.
- Also made sure to be snapshot and not releases for Repository Policy.
- went to the Public Repositories and added all the repositories to Available Repositories section and saved settings
- Reindexed Public Repositories.
Downloaded Maven 3.0 and installed it. I updated my settings.xml to be like the one in the following example http://www.sonatype.com/books/nexus-book/reference/maven-sect-single-group.html with my url pointing to "http://localhost:8080/nexus-webapp-1.9.0/content/groups/public"
I then went over and installed m2Eclipse into my new Eclipse 3.6 install.
Everything up to this point was going smoothly but when I try to create a brand new Maven Project I get errors and when I try to add dependencies and search I get nothing.
The Error I'm getting is Description Resource Path Location Type Could not calculate build plan: Failure to find org.codehaus.mojo:aspectj-maven-plugin:jar:1.0 in http://localhost:8080/nexus-webapp-1.9.0/content/groups/public/ was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of nexus has elapsed or updates are forced com.roo.sample Unknown Maven Problem
I also downloaded Springsource STS and trying using that instead of Eclipse 3.6 with no luck.
I also had a ton of errors about jars missing.
I worked with Nexus and Maven about 2 years ago and I remember it being pretty easy to install and get going. I remember going over to add dependencies and being able to search for most of the public jars with no problem. This is driving me nuts.
