Maven 3.1.0 update central repository to https-CodePudding

I'm using maven 3.1.0 in command line mode to upload jar files to my local maven repository but I'm getting these https errors. How do I update maven's central repository for the https version? I can't find where this is set or how to override it?

CodePudding user response：

Based on the comments and further research. I Installed 3.8.6 from https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi and was able to load my manual jar files into the local repository for later copy to project repository.
