Failed to execute goal com.github.eirslett:frontend-maven-plugin:1.6:install-node-and-npm (install node and npm)

Question

I've got this little problem with maven -

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.github.eirslett:frontend-maven-plugin:1.6:install-node-and-npm (install node and npm) on project xxx-frontend: Could not download Node.js: Could not download https://nodejs.org/dist/v8.11.2/node-v8.11.2-linux-x64.tar.gz: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected error: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty -> [Help 1]

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04, on windows it works fine. What can I possibly do with this? Link to nodejs is fine.

I've tried: - removing ~/m2/repository/com/github/eirslett, but it didn't help, - using global and intellij maven, 3.5.2 and 3.3.9 respectively, - multiple mvn clean install

Could it be a problem with firewall? If yes, then why and how to fix it? Or at least if somebody could give a clue as to what's going on with this crap:/

Answer 1

Since this is a top answer when googling this error, if you're facing this issue and on a Mac with the new M1 chip you need to upgrade to at least version 1.11.0 for this plugin to work.

Answer 2

@maxshuty response actually worked for me, I was having the same issue while using m1 Mac.

Thanks!
