I have simple Java build that looks like this:

```
language: java

```

and Travis build fails:

> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project plumber: Could not resolve dependencies for project pl.touk:plumber:jar:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT: Failed to collect dependencies at org.apache.nifi:nifi-standard-processors:jar:1.9.2 → org.apache.nifi:nifi-syslog-utils:jar:1.9.2 → com.github.palindromicity:simple-syslog-5424:jar:0.0.11: Failed to read artifact descriptor for com.github.palindromicity:simple-syslog-5424:jar:0.0.11: Could not transfer artifact com.github.palindromicity:simple-syslog-5424:pom:0.0.11 from/to jcenter ([http://jcenter.bintray.com](http://jcenter.bintray.com)): Authorization failed for [http://jcenter.bintray.com/com/github/palindromicity/simple-syslog-5424/0.0.11/simple-syslog-5424-0.0.11.pom](http://jcenter.bintray.com/com/github/palindromicity/simple-syslog-5424/0.0.11/simple-syslog-5424-0.0.11.pom) 403 Forbidden → [Help 1]

It fails because jcenter does not support HTTP anymore, so the repository url needs to be changed. I’m not using any repository configuration in my `pom.xml` file.

I was not using any repositories in my `pom.xml`, but I’ve found one in my outdated dependency. After updating the package to newer version, with correct url - everything seems to work fine. 🙂
