Maven : error in opening zip file when running maven

Question

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


        

Answer 1

For me I should change the .m2 repo in the settings.xml file with another one because in Mac maven can't create a folder that start with point(.)

to solve that, open your maven/version/conf/settings.xml and specify the location of your repo folder like this :

../repo

don't forget to change it also in your IDE, in eclipse go to : Windows > Preferences > Maven > User Settings > Global Settings, and navigate to your settings.xml.

clean install your project.

hope this will help you.
