  <hr>
  
  <p>I have the same issue in two different machines [One of the machines with Proxy and other without proxy (Personnel laptop)]</p>
  
  <p>I'm using</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <ol>
    <li>Eclipse Kepler</li>
    <li>JDK 1.6</li>
    <li>Maven 3.0.4</li>
    </ol>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>No luck after lots of attempts; Some of them are listed below:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>downgraded <strong>JDK [Java]</strong> from <code>1.7</code> to <code>1.6</code></li>
  <li><p>added proxy on <code>settings.xml</code> under [<code>C:\Users\prashanth_sams\.m2</code>]</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/uZYYk.png" alt="enter image description here"></p></li>
  <li><p>added mirror in <code>settings.xml</code> under <code>C:\Program Files\Maven\apache-maven-3.0.4\conf\settings.xml</code></p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/gHUMl.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>located specific Maven version location externally</li>
  </ul>

  <p>But, instead of jar files, I see the following two files present inside the repo with suffix, <code>.lastUpdated</code></p>
  
  <p>Is there any other mirrors to be added in the settings.xml? Any help is highly welcome!</p>
