builds failing on Travis

[Philip Durbin]

Someone in IRC just said* they see the following when running a "clean and build":

"Failed to execute goal on project dataverse: Could not resolve dependencies for project edu.harvard.iq:dataverse:war:4.7..."

I just looked at https://travis-ci.org/IQSS/dataverse/builds/267361051 and it looks like maybe there's something wrong with Maven Central? This is what I'm seeing there:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project dataverse: Could not resolve dependencies for project edu.harvard.iq:dataverse:war:4.7.1: Failed to collect dependencies at javax.media:jai_imageio:jar:1.1.1: Failed to read artifact descriptor for javax.media:jai_imageio:jar:1.1.1: Could not transfer artifact javax.media:jai_imageio:pom:1.1.1 from/to geotk-repo (http://maven.geotoolkit.org): Failed to transfer file: http://maven.geotoolkit.org/javax/media/jai_imageio/1.1.1/jai_imageio-1.1.1.pom. Return code is: 503 , ReasonPhrase:Service Temporarily Unavailable. -> [Help 1]

Actually, all the recent builds have failed today, the past 11 (last good build was 267245908). Screenshot attached.

Does anyone have any insight into this?

Nevermind. Travis builds seem to be passing again. Screenshot attached. I guess it was just some transient error, maybe with Maven Central? Too bad it affected the user in IRC who was trying to build Dataverse.
