Problem:
After upgrading to OSS 3.26.1-02 our builds frequently fail because nexus does not deliver the deployed maven artifacts anymore.
After running the Task “Repair - Rebuild Maven repository metadata (maven-metadata.xml)” nexus works correctly again.
Example:
1.) Build and deploy maven artifacts to nexus, e.g.
https://nexus/repository/snapshots/.../dao-api/5.1.0-SNAPSHOT/dao-api-5.1.0-20200818.080357-3.jar
2.) Try to build an artifact depending on (1), e.g.
cd dao-impl; mvn --update-snapshots clean deploy
Expected: Success
Actual: Failing due to the following error:
ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project dao-impl: Could not resolve dependencies for project …: The following artifacts could not be resolved: …:dao-api:jar:5.1.0-SNAPSHOT: Could not find artifact …:dao-api:jar:5.1.0-SNAPSHOT in nexus (http://nexus/repository/maven-all/) ->
3.) Execute Task “Repair - Rebuild Maven repository metadata (maven-metadata.xml)” on nexus
4.) Repeat (2) --> now the mvn build is successful as nexus delivers …:dao-api:jar:5.1.0-SNAPSHOT
Nexus logs are telling basically nothing.
No errors.
Only 1 warning (repeated a couple of times):
2020-08-18 09:04:48,012+0000 WARN [quartz-9-thread-12] *SYSTEM com.sonatype.insight.scan.client.ClientScanner - Could not locate client info descriptor
As a downgrade is not possible: Any hints how to fix this issue?
