Maven fails as it tries to make connection with its central repository, which is used by default. For offline usage, you can create and use a repository manager (also useful if your internet connection is erratic/slow).

Power = internet connection?

You can run Maven offline with the -o command line switch.

i mean internet connection is gone, i mean to say ,i need to point to local repository.

Maven is always going to look to the local repository (cache) on the machine doing the build. So this shouldn't be a problem except in cases where you have to pull new stuff from a remote repository or are publishing results to a remote repository.

In fact, I use the "-o" (offline) switch on my quick builds so that Maven won't even try and check for updates.
