Dependencies with version ranges cannot be resolved in offline mode ------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: SHRINKRES-303 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SHRINKRES-303 Project: ShrinkWrap Resolvers Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.1.3 Reporter: Thorsten Meinl Priority: Major Attachments: shrinkres-303.zip We are using Maven version ranges for several dependencies in our project. Shrinkwrap is able to resolve those correctly as long it has access to the remove repository (or mirror). However, when the resolver is put into offline mode ({{workOffline()}}), dependencies with version ranges cannot be resolved any more although they are present/cached in the local .m2 repository. The reason seems to be that as soon as you use version ranges, _maven-metadata.xml_ files are used. However, when being in offline mode only _maven-metadata-local.xml_ is inspected during resolution but not _maven-metadata-mirror.xml_ (for example). maven-metadata-local.xml either doesn't exist at all or contains only locally {{install}} ed artifacts but no cached remote artifacts.
