## 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.
