Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Apache Maven 3.8.1 is now available on Je

(cross posted to cross-projects issues).

There is a breaking change in Maven 3.8.1: it blocks non TLS repositories. If you have plain http URL in your pom.xml to reference external repositories, you may see errors like 

Could not transfer artifact org.jboss.tools.tycho-plugins:repository-utils:pom:1.7.0 from/to maven-default-http-blocker (http://0.0.0.0/): Blocked mirror for repositories: [jboss-public-repository-group (http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public/, default, releases+snapshots)]
(from https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=574364)
The solution is easy: switch to https:// scheme in your pom.xml, most public maven repositories are available via TLS. 

Thanks.

Hi

Maven 3.8.1 has been deployed to all Jenkins instances.

Note that apache-maven-latest stays at 3.6.3 for now. We will do the the change once upcoming 2021.06 release is done to avoid any issue with build script relying on latest.

Version details are available at https://wiki.eclipse.org/Jenkins#Apache_Maven
