I had the same problem but previous solutions not work for me. The only solution works for me is the following URL.

[EDIT]

Here I explain more about it

Suppose you got an error like below

[ERROR] error: error reading C:\Users\user\.m2\repository\org\jdom\jdom\1.1\jdom-1.1.jar; error in opening zip file

Then you have to follow these steps.

1. First, delete the existing jar C:\Users\user\.m2\repository\org\jdom\jdom\1.1\jdom-1.1.jar
2. Then you have to manually download relevant jar from Maven central repository. You can download from this link here
3. After that, you have to copy that downloaded jar into the previous directory.C:\Users\user\.m2\repository\org\jdom\jdom\1.1\

Then you can build your project using mvn clean install

hope this will help somebody.
