I want to download jira-rest-java-client-0.2-m1.jar using maven. But I dont know the dependency for that.
I tried the following
<dependency>
<groupId>com.atlassian.jira</groupId>
<artifactId>jira-rest-java-client</artifactId>
<version>0.2-m1</version>
</dependency>
But it is not downloading. When I run mvn compile it says

Manually I am able to download the jar. But I want to download it using maven. How can I do that?
Thanks
Looks like you can probably just add Atlassian's public repo to your settings.xml or your pom.xml.
From: https://developer.atlassian.com/display/DOCS/Atlassian+Maven+Repositories,
the url for the public repo is http://maven.atlassian.com/public
Google searches also suggest this repo URL might work as well: https://repository.atlassian.com/maven2
For example to add to your project's pom.xml,
you would add the following as a child of <project>:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>central</id>
<name>Atlassian Public Repository</name>
<layout>default</layout>
<url>http://maven.atlassian.com/public</url>
<snapshots>
<enabled>false</enabled>
</snapshots>
</repository>
</repositories>
(If you already have a repositories section, then you would just add the repository to it).
Here is the documentation for the pom if you would like a little more info: http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-pom.html

I have the following Restlet dependency that is probably coming into effect because its transitive in nature.
However I get the following error message which stops me from building the project. Can you please let me know the issue?
Failed to read artifact descriptor for org.restlet.jee:org.restlet:jar:2.1.1: Could not transfer artifact org.restlet.jee:org.restlet:pom:2.1.1 from/to maven-restlet (http://maven.restlet.org): Failed to transfer http://maven.restlet.org/org/restlet/jee/org.restlet/2.1.1/org.restlet-2.1.1.pom.

I think that it's a problem in your maven configuration.
Hope it helps you,
Thierry
Are you able to go beyond the compilation error?. I'm getting this error while including Morphline dependency for building a Morphline ETL job. After investigating I was not able to get an answer. I manually downloaded the pom, jar into the .m2 directory on my location and fix this issue.
I downloaded the files from http://maven.restlet.com/org/restlet/jee/org.restlet.parent/2.1.1/.
built the pom and it was successful. let me know if there was a fix to this issue which is automatic.
The problem is that whatever is calling the restlet dependency in the original question is referencing http://maven.restlet.org which doesn't seem to be a good URL anymore (and it looks like it was in transition when the question was asked). It should work if you replace that with http://maven.restlet.com, which bears out in Thierry's answer.
Incidentally, I came across this same issue while trying to install DSpace 6.3, which has a dependency of Solr 4.10.4, and I want to share my solution in case others are encountering this and, like me, finding only very old and irrelevant threads about it.
My error message was almost identical except for the message returned by the server:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project dspace-solr: Could not resolve
dependencies for project org.dspace:dspace-solr:war:6.3: Failed to collect
dependencies at org.apache.solr:solr-core:jar:4.10.4 ->

http://maven.restlet.org/org/restlet/jee/org.restlet/2.1.1/org.restlet-2.1.1.pom ,
ReasonPhrase:Forbidden. -> [Help 1]
I resolved this by searching for .pom files in my ~/.m2 directory that contained "restlet.org" and then editing them to replace restlet.org with restlet.com, which for the version of Solr that DSpace needs was in:
~/.m2/repository/org/apache/solr/solr-parent/4.10.4/solr-parent-4.10.4.pom
And I changed from
<repository>
<id>maven-restlet</id>
<name>Public online Restlet repository</name>
<url>http://maven.restlet.org</url>
</repository>
To
<repository>
<id>maven-restlet</id>

<url>http://maven.restlet.com</url>

I am attempting to connect our Jenkins servers to our Artifactory repository for builds. I've been successful with the Jenkins server at my office location, but I am having problems with a Jenkins server that's on another part of the corporate network.
I've disabled the job, went into the workspace, and tried using mvn directly:

So, I am able to reach that URL via wget and curl, but Maven itself seems to be having problems fetching that URL. I've added a proxy settings to my ~/.m2/settings.xml, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. We originally setup our Maven repository to redirect from Port 80 to Port 8080, but adding or removing the port number from the URL makes no difference. The settings.xml is from Artifactory which will generate it for you. The same settings.xml works in our office.
Removing the settings.xml allows everything to work because it can download from the standard Maven repo.
My settings.xml:

Have I missed anything? Do I need to add a repo for Spring Boot? The only Spring Boot artifacts in the main maven repo are all 1.1.5.RELEASE. If I replace 1.2.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT with 1.1.5.RELEASE, it builds; but then unsurprisingly fails to run.
I ran into the same problem when I updated from 1.1.5.RELEASE.
I ran mvn install from the spring-boot directory.
It took over 1 hour 10 minutes!
Let me know if this fixes it!
Did you have the pom file pointing to the snapshot repo as in this link? The repo link has the maven plugin contents listed.

I am new to Nexus and am trying to run a Maven project against my single Nexus server. In running the project (Spring Roo example known to build and run properly), all but two milestone jar’s loaded. My answer (maybe not the best) was to find and upload the jars directly (with POM’s) into my Nexus server (hosted repo), which I then placed in the public group.
When re-running the mvn project (using mvn package tomcat:run), the 2 files seem to download (see console output below) from the server, but are still not found by the mvn project. Why would the project apparently call them down but not use them? Thanks.
Here is the console output showing the download happening, but not getting used by the project, and my settings.xml (jars at issue are the aspectjrt-1.6.11.M1 and aspectjweaver-1.6.11.M1):

First of all the url http://central is fine. It is a dummy placeholder that is never used because you have the mirror defined.
However the mirror url you are using it most likely wrong. Typically repositories in Nexus are hosted or proxied and then aggregated into a public "group".
The url default url for the public group is http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public/
with localhost replaced with your server and the port omitted if you are proxying behind apache or running on port 80.
Anyway.. the main point is that the url is /content/GROUPS/public .. your url is most likely wrong. To test is just try the url from the mirror in a browser.
And of course all the repositories you want available in the public group have to be added to it.
Since you are running on your own Nexus server, the jar is not available on the repositories you have configured. You should add the Spring Source milestone, releases, and snapshots repository to the public group.
OSS has an instance of the Spring Source repository and they have a single group url that contains the milestone, releases, and snapshots. The link is https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/springsource-all/
To do that, you should add a proxy repository that points to https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/springsource-all/ and set the repository policy to Snapshot.
Then, add the new repository to the public group. Finally, rebuild the index and Maven should be able to find the file now.
Also, below are a few helpful links configuring Spring with Nexus.
