maven install throw "error in opening zip file" only after the second try

Question

I try to run maven install on my project with some dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>log4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.15</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
    <version>1.5.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId>
    <artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId>
    <version>0.9.24</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
   <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
   <version>3.3.2.GA</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
   <artifactId>hibernate-annotations</artifactId>
   <version>3.4.0.GA</version>
</dependency>

the first time I run mvn install it's run just fine (BUILD SUCCESS) but the second time ("after I make some changes in the code") I try to run mvn install and maven throw "error in opening zip file".

[ERROR] error: error reading C:\Users\Idan\.m2\repository\javax\jms\jms\1.1\jms-         1.1.jar; error in opening zip file
[ERROR] error: error reading C:\Users\Idan\.m2\repository\com\sun\jdmk\jmxtools\1.2.1\jmxtools-1.2.1.jar; error in opening zip file
[ERROR] error: error reading C:\Users\Idan\.m2\repository\com\sun\jmx\jmxri\1.2.1\jmxri-1.2.1.jar; error in opening zip file
[ERROR] error: error reading C:\Users\Idan\.m2\repository\ch\qos\logback\logback-classic\0.9.24\logback-classic-0.9.24.jar; error in opening zip file

but

if I remove log4j, slf4j, and logback-classoc dependencies run maven install (BUILD SUCCESS) return log4j, slf4j, and logback-classic dependencies run maven install it run just fine (BUILD SUCCESS).

What can be the problem?

Update:

well I delete all my .m2/reposetory folder delete all target folder in my project then I run mvn install and I get

Answer 1

In my case It was giving below error

error: error reading C:\Users\ppatel4.m2\repository\org\apache\xalan\xalan\2.7. 1\xalan-2.7.1.jar; error in opening zip file

Below are the steps I did to fix it.

1. Manually download xalan-2.7.1.jar
2. Remove all files of: ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/xalan/xalan/2.7.1/
3. Copy the jar which is manually downloaded into the location: ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/xalan/xalan/2.7.1/

---

$ cp xalan-2.7.1.jar ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/xalan/xalan/2.7.1/

Its Done… Try to execute your mvn clean install command.

Answer 2

Clean your .m2\repository or delete your specific folders from the .m2\repository directory

step2.
