Error message
Failed to resolve the available updates
What it means
InfoMojo (`mvn quarkus:info`) executes a command that computes the application model and queries the registry for available Quarkus platform updates. If the command throws QuarkusCommandException, the mojo rethrows it as this MojoExecutionException.

Solutions
- Check network access to the configured Quarkus registry (default https://registry.quarkus.io)
- Verify proxy settings in settings.xml or MAVEN_OPTS
- Inspect the QuarkusCommandException cause for the underlying failure
- Use a locally mirrored registry via quarkus.registry config if behind a firewall
- Retry with -e to get full stack trace and diagnose
Example fix
// before <quarkus.registry>https://internal-wrong-host/registry</quarkus.registry> // after <quarkus.registry>https://registry.quarkus.io</quarkus.registry>
Defensive patterns
Strategy: try-catch
Validate before calling
// pre-check registry reachability
try (java.net.Socket socket = new java.net.Socket()) {
socket.connect(new java.net.InetSocketAddress("registry.quarkus.io", 443), 3000);
} // if this fails, quarkus:info will fail in offline env Try / catch
try {
// mvn quarkus:info
} catch (MojoExecutionException e) {
if (isNetworkCause(e)) { log.warn("Registry unreachable; skipping update check"); }
else { throw e; }
} Prevention
- Configure a mirror registry for air-gapped environments
- Set proxies correctly in settings.xml
- Run connectivity smoke tests in CI before Quarkus goals
When it happens
Trigger: Running `mvn quarkus:info` when the platform update check fails: registry unreachable, application model cannot be resolved, or network timeout contacting registry.quarkus.io (or a custom registry).
Common situations: Offline/air-gapped environments; corporate proxy blocking the Quarkus registry; misconfigured quarkus.registry URL; DNS failures in CI.
