Description

if the parent of the axis2-parent pom

<parent>
<groupId>org.apache</groupId>
<artifactId>apache</artifactId>
<version>3</version>
</parent>

has not previously been downloaded and you attempt to use the wsdl2code maven plugin within a project, it will attempt to download the above parent from https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/ where a html redirect has been placed. This causes the html being returned to be placed into the pom file in the local repo and the build fails as per below

Project ID: org.apache.axis2:axis2-parent:pom:1.5

Reason: Cannot find parent: org.apache:apache for project: org.apache.axis2:axis
2-parent:pom:1.5 for project org.apache.axis2:axis2-parent:pom:1.5

To fix this you must cause the above parent pom to be downloaded from repo1 before it attempts the download from the embedded repository in axis2-parent. This requires adding
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache</groupId>
<artifactId>apache</artifactId>
<version>3</version>
</dependency>

as a dependency of the wsdl2code project and ensuring that the wsdl2code isnt the first plugin used by the project.

I'd suggest dropping https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/ as a dependency from the repositories for the axis2-parent pom to eliminate this and locating a 'better' repository which doesnt use html redirects for any dependencies for building axis2-parent
