Transitive dependency causing build failure

Question

I am creating building a jar which will also include its dependencies. I am using maven shade plugin for this. But getting Caused by: java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header error while building. I tried excluding the transitive dependency as shown below still getting error.

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Problem shading JAR C:\Users\Admin.m2\repository\org\apache\commons\commons-lang3\3.3.2\commons-lang3-3.3.2.jar entry META-INF/LICENSE.txt: java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature) at org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.DefaultShader.shadeJars(DefaultShader.java:197) at org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.DefaultShader.shade(DefaultShader.java:106) at org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.mojo.ShadeMojo.execute(ShadeMojo.java:442) ... 21 more Caused by: java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature)

Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

I guess there was an error downloading the dependency. This happend quite often when eclipse downloaded the dependencies for me.

Delete the corrupted artifact from your maven cache (located in C:\Users\<username>\.m2\respository).
