Dear Mr.Theodora,

i tried to implement your suggested solution but unfortunately there is no result.

here are logs of my pipeline now after picking it using wget.

Build setup13s
cd GSBL/tuk-api/lib<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/KpiCommonLib-1.0.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/bcfgconnector-1.1-SNAPSHOT.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/bcfg-online.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/trace-manager-filter-1.0.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/trace-manager-lib-1.0.0.4.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/trace-manager-lib-1.0.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/trace-manager-lib.jar"<1s
wget "http://18.216.70.25/bcfg-connector.jar"
at the end of pipeline execution same error message is coming while system picked all jars.
Caused by: org.eclipse.aether.transfer.ArtifactNotFoundException: Could not find artifact com.comviva:bcfg-online:jar:3.0 in bcfgconnector-1.1-SNAPSHOT.jar (file://opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/GSBL/tuk-api/lib)
You may check the logs of my pipeline:

Dear Theodora, Does the directory src\lib exist in your repo?-- Yes, i tried this attempt to place my jars under src/lib directory manually created before execution of pipeline but with or without placing jars same response were coming. Also, is this jar file (KpiCommonLib-1.0.jar) uploaded on some server you can download it from during the build?--- Yes i have already tried it picking from another repository like in step 3 mentioned below. apart i have tried below ways, i will try to do this using wget as per your suggestion and will post my response. i have tried following approach. 1. in my build 28 https://bitbucket.org/comvivacms/tukcode/commits/4cc34ccbf8607acc3eda2f04dcabbcf4bb800647 in this i tried to pick the dependencies from another repository. 2. build 33 tried using basedir to pick external jars https://bitbucket.org/comvivacms/tukcode/commits/be32c45ae7332c17490461a6f918290b68c88afc 3. tried repositories tag in pom file and pick external jars like + + dropwizard-core-1.3.5.jar + https://bitbucket.org/comvivacms/tukcode/src/master/GSBL/tuk-api/lib/ + 4. using system path in pom.xml + {project.basedir}/src/main/resources/lib/trace-manager-lib-1.0.0.4.jar Regards, Vishal Jain

Hi Vishal,

Based on the output, it looks that the build is trying to find the file at this path:

/opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build\src\lib\KpiCommonLib-1.0.jar

Just to give you some context first:
- when a Pipelines build runs, a Docker container starts for each step
- then, the repo is cloned in the directory /opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build in that Docker container (this is the clone directory)
- then, the commands of the script for that step from your yml file are executed in the above directory

Does the directory src\lib exist in your repo? Or is it a directory that is generated during the build?

Also, is this jar file (KpiCommonLib-1.0.jar) uploaded on some server you can download it from during the build?

If so, you could try downloading the jar file in that location (src\lib) using e.g. a wget or curl command in your yml file, before the command that gives you this error.

Kind regards,
Theodora
