title: Intellij Idea Maven build "failed to read artifact descriptor"
body: <p>All the maven builds on idea are failing with the following error for each Maven dependency:</p>
  
  <p>"Failed to read artifact dependency:coordinates" where "dependency:coordinates" could be any dependency in my pom.</p>
  
  <p>When I go to the respective dependency inside the pom the part underlined in red reads...</p>
  
  <p>"Dependency 'dependency:coordinates' not found."</p>
  
  <p><strong>The build works fine on the command-line (using cygwin).</strong></p>
  
  <p>I am using: </p>
  
  <p>Intellij Idea 14.0.2
  Maven 3.2.3
  jdk 1.7.0_71</p>
  
  <p>As I am working on a corporate network I have to access the outside world through a proxy server. I have configured Intellij Idea to use this proxy, so it should not have any trouble accessing the maven central repositories.</p>
  
  <p>When I tail the idea log file as the builds fail I get the following:</p>

  <p>Can anyone suggest a solution???</p>
  
  <p>The answer to the <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16291157/failed-to-read-artifact-descriptor-for-maven-resources-plugin">this question</a> suggests that it is indeed a network connectivity issue however there is nothing in the snippet from the logs (above) to confirm this. Is there any way to increment the level of detail in the IDEA logs that would give more insight on the problem?? i.e. How does one configure debug logging in IDEA?</p>
