Java Maven project build failure

Question

I have created a Java project to push data to an Apache Kafka server (this project is error free, according to my IDE). When I try to run Maven -> Install, my build fails.

I receive the following error:

Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.2-beta-5:single (default) on project kafka_producer: Failed to create assembly: Error creating assembly archive jar-with-dependencies: Problem creating jar: invalid LOC header (bad signature) -> [Help 1]
[ERROR] 
[ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e switch.
[ERROR] Re-run Maven using the -X switch to enable full debug logging.
[ERROR] 
[ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please read the following articles:
[ERROR] [Help 1] http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/MojoExecutionException

If I am going to delete data from the m2. folder and try to update project, its taking more time(for 2 hours only 2% update). and also it affects all other project in workspace.

Let me know how to resolve the issue in eclipse. Below is the pom.xml:

Answer 1

This error usually indicates a corrupted jar in your repository.

One way to fix is the issue is to remove just the relevant jars from your maven repo (usually /home/[user]/.m2/repository/) , and re-try.

Answer 2

Try to run maven with mvn clean install -U.

It will force a re-download of all the JARs, so if one is corrupted it will get a new copy. It sounds similar to corruption issues noted here: Deploying Maven project throws java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature).

They recommend other solutions; but I think -U may suffice.
