    Description

      When the local repository is not writable, the error messages when downloading an artifact does not allow to pin down the issue quickly.

      Maven only reports that the artifact cannot be downloaded, and the root cause is displayed as :
      Caused by: org.apache.maven.wagon.ResourceDoesNotExistException: Unable to download the artifact from any repository

      No message in the trace indicates a problem with the local repository.

      The full trace with a clean local repository is attached.
