can't install node, npm, yarn

[delanym]

I can't install via the install-node-and-npm or install-node-and-yarn goals on versions since at least 1.7.5

Also tried JDK11

Disclaimer: node is already installed on my machine

That's weird. Try deleting your entire .m2 folder, and then run it again?

I can install after deleting only the .m2/repository

[delanym]

Now its back

It seems your plugin depends on org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient One of my projects import version 4.5.2 of this artefact into m2/repository But your plugin should mandate the version you need as it clearly won't work with v4.5.2. I did this in the plugin and it now builds.

This plugin uses 4.5.2: https://github.com/eirslett/frontend-maven-plugin/blob/cdc515af830fb0be5f0a1710c538b7b950fef1f9/frontend-plugin-core/pom.xml#L47

Do you have another project that is polluting your local repository with a modified version of that JAR?

[delanym]

I'll have to look it it more closely. I tried swapping the jar with https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/httpcomponents/httpclient/4.5.2/httpclient-4.5.2.jar I can't remember the exact order of events, but now I can't replicate the issue.
