Builds using spring-cloud-starter-parent fail due to missing dependencies.

[colin-icontrol]

It would appear the recent spate of Spring releases has broken Brixton.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.

In a maven project with the following:

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-parent</artifactId>
            <version>Brixton.BUILD-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

(I'm also pointing at the repo.spring.io libs-{snapshot,milestone,release}-local repositories)

I get the following resolution error for spring-cloud-dependencies-parent:

It doesn't look like you're pointing to libs-milestone-local. Your log didn't try to download the artifact from that repository.

The actual build is broken because of this issue: https://travis-ci.org/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-starters/builds/113183780

My repositories are defined thusly:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>spring-snapshots</id>
        <name>Spring Snapshots</name>
        <url>http://repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot-local</url>
        <snapshots>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
        </snapshots>
    </repository>
    <repository>
        <id>spring-milestones</id>
        <name>Spring Milestones</name>
        <url>http://repo.spring.io/libs-milestone-local</url>
        <snapshots>
            <enabled>false</enabled>

    </repository>
</repositories>

[spencergibb]

Why doesn't you log attempt to download from libs-milestone-local?

[colin-icontrol]

I'm not sure why that doesn't show up.

Could it be a maven transitive dependency thing? From the downloads, it resolves spring-cloud-starter-parent from repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot-local, however it appears there is a reference in that artifact to spring-cloud-dependencies-parent that goes right to repo.maven.apache.org instead of resolving through the spring repositories.

Off the top of my head, does spring-cloud-starter-parent need to have the repositories element pointing to the spring repositories?

FWIW, I'm using maven 3.2.2.

[spencergibb]

What is the your pom's parent?

[colin-icontrol]

I get this error using a pom with no parent. If I set the parent to the following, I get the same download problem and more maven errors.

<parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>Brixton.BUILD-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <relativePath/>
    <!-- lookup parent from repository -->
</parent>

[colin-icontrol]

For what it's worth, the project: https://github.com/spring-cloud-samples/customers-stores seems to have the same problem, except it's looking for the 1.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT release of spring-cloud-dependencies-parent.

[spencergibb]

I think 70beb5e may have fixed things.

[spencergibb]

hmm, never mind.

[spencergibb]

Ok, b632d9d really fixed things.

[colin-icontrol]

When can I expect the changes to be published to the repos?

And thanks for the quick responses!

[spencergibb]

Snapshots are published immediately. You may need to force an update with mvn -U.

[colin-icontrol]

The problem still exists. I removed spring-cloud-starter-parent and spring-cloud-starter-dependencies from my local repository, and rebuilt, and I get the same error.

It seems like it's still skipping the milestones repository, even with the following dependencyManagement and repositories configuration:

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
