In there, you will find one or more folders, depending on your Maven setup. Repository Structureīy default, Maven will store all artifacts and associated files in your home directory under. This comes in handy if you have, for example, Maven integrated in your IDE and the mvn binary is not available in the command line. However, this time, I was thinking to go the extra mile and actually figure out a way of doing it entirely manually. See Maven's Guide to installing 3rd party JARs for more details on that. Usually, this is easily accomplished via: mvn install:install-file -Dfile= -DgroupId= -DartifactId= -Dversion= -Dpackaging= I find myself once again in the situation where I have to install the Oracle JDBC driver into my local Maven repository.
