You could also check if the required certificates are installed to make sure that it allows the dependencies to be downloaded

This error sometimes occurs  The files becomes corrupt  A quick solution thats works for me  is    Go to your local repository  in general   m2   in your case I see that is C  Users suresh m2  Search for the packages that makes conflicts  in general go to repository org  and delete it Try again to install it   With that you force to get the actual files  good luck with that

User · Answer

For me I should change the  m2 repo in the settings xml file with another one because in Mac maven can t create a folder that start with point     to solve that  open your maven version conf settings xml and specify the location of your repo folder like this      lt localRepository gt    repo lt  localRepository gt    don t forget to change it also in your IDE  in eclipse go to   Windows   Preferences   Maven   User Settings   Global Settings  and navigate to your settings xml   clean install your project   hope this will help you

I also encountered the same problem  my problem has been resolved   The solution is   According to error information being given  to find the corresponding jar in maven repository and deleted      Then executed mvn install command after deleting

Accidently I found a simple workaroud to this issue  Running Maven with -X option forces it to try other servers to download source code  Instead of trash HTML inside some jar files there is correct content   mvn clean install -X  gt  d  log txt   And in the log file you find messages like these   Downloading  https   repository apache org content groups public org apache axis2 mex 1 6 1-wso2v2 mex-1 6 1-wso2v2-impl jar  DEBUG  Writing resolution tracking file D  wso2 local repository org apache axis2 mex 1 6 1-wso2v2 mex-1 6 1-wso2v2-impl jar lastUpdated Downloading  http   maven wso2 org nexus content groups wso2-public org apache axis2 mex 1 6 1-wso2v2 mex-1 6 1-wso2v2-impl jar   You see  Maven switched repository apache org to maven wso2 org when it encountered a download problem  So the following error is now gone    ERROR  error  error reading D  wso2 local repository org apache axis2 mex 1 6 1-wso2v2 mex-1 6 1-wso2v2-impl jar  error in opening zip file

I had a similar problem as well  The fix was a mix of both  I had a problem with asm-3 1  as mentioned in the blog post linked by Takahiko  That jar was corrupt  I needed to manually get the jar from the maven central repository  Removing it and retrying just got the corrupt jar again  It then still failed on the asm-parent  which was a POM file containing the HTML with a 301  Again  it required manually getting the file myself  You may want to check what settings XML to see if you re set to a different repository  such as a local nexus server   When the proper way to get the new one fails  manually grab it yourself

I had the same problem but previous solutions not work for me  The only solution works for me is the following URL   https   enlightensoft wordpress com 2013 01 15 maven-error-reading-error-in-opening-zip-file    EDIT   Here I explain more about it   Suppose you got an error like below   ERROR  error  error reading C  Users user  m2 repository org jdom jdom 1 1 jdom-1 1 jar  error in opening zip file   Then you have to follow these steps    First  delete the existing jar C  Users user  m2 repository org jdom jdom 1 1 jdom-1 1 jar Then you have to manually download relevant jar from Maven central repository  You can download from this link here After that  you have to copy that downloaded jar into the previous directory C  Users user  m2 repository org jdom jdom 1 1    Then you can build your project using mvn clean install  hope this will help somebody

Deleting the entire local m2 repo may not be advisable  As in my case I have hundreds and hundreds of jars in my local  I don t want to re-download them all just for one jar  Most of the above answers didn t work for me  here is what I did    STEP 1  Ensure if you are downloading from the correct Maven repo in you settings xml  In my case it was referring to http   central maven org maven2  as https   repo1 maven org maven2   So it was getting corrupted or going otherwise   STEP 2  Delete the folder containing the artifact and other details in your local machine This will force it download it again upon next build  STEP 3  mvn clean install       Hope it helps

Probably  contents of the JAR files in your local  m2 repository are HTML saying  301 Moved Permanently   It seems that mvn does not handle  301 Moved Permanently  properly as expected  In such a case  download the JAR files manually from somewhere  the central repository  for example  and put them into your  m2 repository   See also      asm-3 1 jar  error in opening zip file   http   darutk-oboegaki blogspot jp 2012 07 asm-31jar-error-in-opening-zip-file html

I downloaded the jar file manually and replace the one in my local directory and it worked

go to the  m2 repository and delete the conflicting files mvn -U clean install

User · Answer

Try to remove your repository in   m2 repository  and then do a mvn clean install  to download the files again

User · Answer

This error occurs because of some file corruption  But we don t need to delete whole  m2 folder  Instead find which jar files get corrupted by looking at the error message in the console  And delete only the folders which contains those jar files   Like in the question      C  Users suresh  m2 repository org jdom jdom  C  Users suresh  m2 repository javax servlet servlet-api  C  Users suresh  m2 repository org apache cxf cxf-rt-bindings-http C  Users suresh  m2 repository org codehaus jra jra C  Users suresh  m2 repository org apache cxf cxf-api C  Users suresh  m2 repository org apache cxf cxf-common-utilities   Delete these folders  Then run   mvn clean install -U
