org.jdom.XPath set up issues (jaxen)
I'm trying to use org.jdom.XPath but am having trouble creating the jaxen jar.
When I try to create the jar, the following occurs:
maven jar
Error retrieving artifact from [http://ibiblio.org/maven/xom/jars/xom-1.0.jar]: java.io.IOException: Unknown error downloading; status code was: 301
I have tried updating the repository list in project.properties but am still getting the same error. Is there something that I am missing? Or is there a jar file that already exists that I can use? If not, is there something other than jaxen that I can use with org.jdom.XPath?

# 1
HTTP status code 301 means "Moved Permanently". So that jar file has been moved to a new URL. When I pasted that URL into my browser I could see the result of the redirect:
http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/xom/xom/1.0/xom-1.0.jar
So if you can change whatever uses the original URL to that URL instead, it should work. Otherwise, changing whatever HTTP client tries to access the URL so that it automatically follows redirects would work as well, but I have no idea how you would do that.

I had tried to change the maven.repo.remote in project.properties, but that didn't seem to affect anything, so I'm not sure where it was getting that address. Thanks for the redirect site, using that I was able to fake my way through it by downloading the jars manually.
