Unsupported Protocol Error when deploying a 3rd party jar. What should I do?
When using deploy-deploy-file goal and encountered this error “Error deploying artifact: Unsupported Protocol: ‘ftp’: Cannot find wagon which supports the requested protocol: ftp” You only have to place the appropriate wagon provider to your %M2_HOME%/lib. In this case the provider needed is ftp, so we have to place the wagon-ftp jar to the lib of your m2 installation. If the error description is something like “Error deploying artifact: Unsupported Protocol: ‘ftp’: Cannot find wagon which supports the requested protocol: ftp org/apache/commons/net/ftp/FTP” Place also the commons-net jar to %M2_HOME%/lib.
