IntelliJ Not using local repo for maven builds

Question

I am trying to build my spring boot (maven) project locally, but the build fails because IntelliJ is looking for a company specific artifact in the main maven repo : https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2

ERROR

Failure to find [company artifact] in https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be re```attempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced

I have set my maven settings to point to my local repo

How do I get my maven projects to build using only local artifacts?

Answer 1

1. case: If you company artifact comes from a company repository that you reference in your ´settings.xml or pom.xml , you can just delete the directory in .m2/repository that belongs to that artifact and try again (directories are of the form com/something/artifactId/version`).

2. case: If the company artifact was directly installed into the local repository, you need more fine-grained surgery. Go the directory in the local repository where you suspect the artifact. Then remove all files that end with .lastupdated and then try again.
