  <p>I was looking for an answer and find that I should check if I am behind some proxy or maybe to specify a maven repository or maybe some IDE problem. But I am not behind a proxy and my settings.xml doesn't have any proxy config and I was trying to start an mvn clean install from command line so there should not be IDE problems. Also, I am trying to download from central repo so I found that for central repo there should be no problem. Thank you in advance. :)</p>
