An alternative that worked for me is to tell Maven to use http: instead of https: when using Maven Central by adding the following to settings.xml:

<settings>
   .
   .
   .
  <mirrors>
    <mirror>
        <id>central-no-ssl</id>
        <name>Central without ssl</name>
        <url>http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2</url>
        <mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
    </mirror>
  </mirrors>
   .
   .
   .
</settings>

Your mileage may vary of course.

You can disable SSL certificate checking by adding one or more of these command line parameters    -Dmaven wagon http ssl insecure true - enable use of relaxed SSL check for user generated certificates  -Dmaven wagon http ssl allowall true - enable match of the server s X 509 certificate with hostname  If disabled  a browser like check will be used  -Dmaven wagon http ssl ignore validity dates true - ignore issues with certificate dates    Official documentation  http   maven apache org wagon wagon-providers wagon-http   Here s the oneliner for an easy copy-and-paste   -Dmaven wagon http ssl insecure true -Dmaven wagon http ssl allowall true -Dmaven wagon http ssl ignore validity dates true   Ajay Gautam suggested that you could also add the above to the    mavenrc file as not to have to specify it every time at command line     cat    mavenrc  MAVEN OPTS  -Dmaven wagon http ssl insecure true -Dmaven wagon http ssl allowall true -Dmaven wagon http ssl ignore validity dates true

You can also configure m2e to use HTTP instead of HTTPS  force-m2e-to-use-http-instead-of-https

Create a folder   USER HOME   mvn  and put a file called maven config in it   The content should be   -Dmaven wagon http ssl insecure true -Dmaven wagon http ssl allowall true -Dmaven wagon http ssl ignore validity dates true   Hope this helps
