Netbeans Maven Failed to execute goal on project

Question

I am working on a java project currently, my problem is a bit weird as yesterday my code was working fine then suddenly today when I try to build and test my code I get this error:

Failed to execute goal on project extraportGlobalSearch: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.api:extraportGlobalSearch:jar:1.0: Failed to collect dependencies for [org.glassfish.jersey.containers:jersey-container-grizzly2-http:jar:2.27 (compile), org.glassfish.jersey.inject:jersey-hk2:jar:2.27 (compile), junit:junit:jar:4.9 (test), com.googlecode.json-simple:json-simple:jar:1.1.1 (compile), com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-annotations:jar:2.5.4 (compile), javax.servlet:javax.servlet-api:jar:3.0.1 (compile), com.google.zxing:core:jar:3.3.3 (compile), com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind:jar:2.5.4 (compile), oracle:ojdbc:jar:11.2.0.4 (compile), org.glassfish.grizzly:grizzly-http-server:jar:2.4.0 (compile)]: Failed to read artifact descriptor for oracle:ojdbc:jar:11.2.0.4: Could not transfer artifact oracle:ojdbc:pom:11.2.0.4 from/to central (http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2): Failed to transfer file: http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/oracle/ojdbc/11.2.0.4/ojdbc-11.2.0.4.pom.

I tried to add another repo using https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/ url in my pom.xml but the error still persist. I have tried to resolve this for the past 5 hours, it would be great if anyone can help me, here is my pom.xml:

Help needed. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

While the other responses give you workarounds by manually configuring the repository or a more recent version of Maven, the true source of the problem is that Netbeans (8.2) has became obsolete and is no more updated, you'd better migrate to Apache Netbeans (currently at version 11.3).

You should update your maven version, the last maven version use https.

1. Download maven https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi (binary zip file) and extract it.
2. In netbeans, go to Tools -> Options -> Java -> Maven. In Maven Home select Browse, and select the folder where you extract maven
3. Enjoy it!
