Azure functions java project visual studio code error for dependencies

Question

I am trying to use VSCode to create azure function and deploy it to azure. I followed the official documentation as described,

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-create-first-function-vs-code?pivots=programming-language-java.

I am able to run project but getting errors for dependencies mentioned in pom.xml file.

missing artifact org.hamcrest:hamcrest-core:jar1.3

failed to read artifact descriptor for com.mircosoft.azure:azure-functions-java-core:jar1.0.0.-beta-1

missing artifact com.microsoft.aure:azure-functions-java-core:jar1.0.0-beta-1

missing artifact junit:junit:4.12

complete error trace:

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Make sure your network connection works well and Open Command Palette, clean java language server workspace.

You can turn to Maven Repository and find the missed dependencies then add them to pom.xml,

OR

Open Command Palette and choose Maven: Add a dependency..., then select missed dependencies the error mentioned. Then rebuild the project. Try and see if it solves your question.

[UPDATE]

The error said

Failure to transfer com.microsoft.azure:azure-functions-java-core:pom:1.0.0-beta-1 from https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced.

The easiest way to resolve this is to delete the dependencies or artifacts which maven has appended with the .lastUpdated prefix. Only after that can you successfully Update Dependencies of your maven project.
