Common questions

Can I host an internal Maven repository using only static web hosting?

No, remote internal Maven repository implementations are almost all Tomcat apps. Static web access alone is not sufficient.

How can I install Maven in a Docker container?

Use the provided Docker Hub image directly, or install Maven inside the image with Sdkman. Sdkman fetches the desired Maven and JDK versions.

Why do Maven artifact download counts look lower than npm download counts?

Maven clients download a release artifact only once per local cache. npm can hit the central repository on clean builds, so Maven counts can look lower or incorrect.

Why does unsubscribing from a Maven mailing list fail?

Use the same email address when unsubscribing that you used when subscribing. Using a different address is a common cause of problems.
