title: Failed to collect dependencies at
body: <p>I'm just trying to understand something. Suppose I'm trying to pull in this dependency</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"&gt;

  &lt;version&gt;1.0&lt;/version&gt;
  &lt;dependencies&gt;
      &lt;dependency&gt;

          &lt;/exclusions&gt;
      &lt;/dependency&gt;
  &lt;/dependencies&gt;
  &lt;/project&gt;

  <p>I get the following error</p>
  
  <pre><code>[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project mvn-to-cpe: Could not resolve dependencies for project com.thirdwatch:mvn-to-cpe:jar:1.0: Failed to collect dependencies at ch.racic.testing:test-configuration-manager:jar:0.9.5: Failed to read artifact descriptor for ch.racic.testing:test-configuration-manager:jar:0.9.5: Failure to find ch.racic.testing:test-configuration-manager-parent:pom:0.9.5 in http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced -&gt; [Help 1]

  <p>It seems the .jar is missing. We're using a Nexus server on our end and this is what it shows</p>

  <p>I believe Nexus mirrors the Central Maven Repo and the central maven seems to have it.</p>
  
  <p>See </p>
  
  <p><a href="https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ch/racic/testing/test-configuration-manager/0.9.5/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ch/racic/testing/test-configuration-manager/0.9.5/</a></p>
  
  <p>and </p>
  
  <p><a href="http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Cch.racic.testing%7Ctest-configuration-manager%7C0.9.5%7Cjar" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Cch.racic.testing%7Ctest-configuration-manager%7C0.9.5%7Cjar</a></p>
  
  <p>What is accounting for this discrepancy?
  Are we mirroring the wrong maven repository?</p>
