Failure to find org.apache.xalan:xalan:jar:2.7.1 in http://www.eviware.com/repository/maven2/

I am running a maven project that I downloaded it from https://svn.wso2.org/repos/wso2/people/suresh/saml2/sso-demo/src-dist The problem is that, it can run on another computer but mine :( . I don't know why. When I enter "mvn clean install" in the command line. The result is as following:

Seems it failed to download xalan.jar from a link . But I saw that maven automatically downloaded xalan-2.7.1.jar already. I don't know how to fix this bug. Please help me as soon as possible. I'm very appreciated.

The repository your project is searching on does not contain the artifact :

org.apache.xalan:xalan:jar:2.7.1.

It only contains xalan:xalan:jar:2.7.1.

If you run mvn -X compile you'll see they are a dependency of:

[DEBUG]    org.opensaml:opensaml:jar:2.2.3:compile
[DEBUG]       commons-collections:commons-collections:jar:3.1:compile
[DEBUG]       commons-lang:commons-lang:jar:2.1:compile
[DEBUG]       velocity:velocity:jar:1.5:compile
[DEBUG]       org.apache.xerces:xml-apis:jar:2.9.1:runtime
[DEBUG]       org.apache.xerces:xercesImpl:jar:2.9.1:runtime
[DEBUG]       org.apache.xerces:resolver:jar:2.9.1:runtime
[DEBUG]       org.apache.xerces:serializer:jar:2.9.1:runtime
[DEBUG]       org.apache.xalan:xalan:jar:2.7.1:runtime

If believe the person who wrote this code meant to exclude them:

<exclusion>
     <groupId>xalan</groupId>
     <artifactId>xalan</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
     <groupId>xerces</groupId>
     <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
</exclusion>

But note that the <groupId> is actually excluding a dependency that it's not really a dependency. You will need to change the above exclusions in the pom, by:

<exclusion>
     <groupId>org.apache.xalan</groupId>
     <artifactId>xalan</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
     <groupId>org.apache.xerces</groupId>
     <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
</exclusion>

Follow the same pattern for other potential conflicting artifacts.
