Hi, I have dowloaded Shield Custom realm sample from GitHub to compile it and execute it so that later will be developing our own custom realm for our project, However when I try to compile i get the missing artifact and dependency error. Belwo is the POM the head section.. org.elasticsearch.plugin plugins 3.0.0-SNAPSHOT 4.0.0 Questions -- ? > Why is it giving "Missing artifact org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch:jar:tests:3.0.0-SNAPSHOT" ? > Do I need any special shield access to get all the dependencies related to Shield plugin?? > Any thing specific to elasticsearch do i need access to or should i download to my repository? Please help me with this issue. In MAVEN debug mode ..

Hi @Yasho, What version of elasticsearch and shield will you be using? For 2.3, please checkout the `2.3` branch. I'll update it later today to use the latest versions. If you are wanting to try with the latest 5.0 alpha, you can checkout the `gradle` branch. -Jay ---

You can checkout the tag for 2.2.1 to get an example that works for your version. `git checkout v2.2.1` and then you should be able to build a compatible version. You do not need to install es/shield on your laptop unless you want to manually test the plugin on your laptop. ---

Hi, I "checkout the gradle branch" and tried to build it. But the "org.elasticsearch.plugin:x-pack:5.0.0-alpha4" library is not retreived. Is that related to the "not found" error from the maven repository? [https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.elasticsearch.plugin/x-pack](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.elasticsearch.plugin/x-pack) Thanks in advance for your answer, i try to develop a elastic-custom-realm but the first step is blocking me 😕 ---

Hi @romain.dequidt, I've just pushed an update to that branch. Can you please try again? The x-pack artifacts are hosted on our own repository and are not publish to maven central. Also, next time it is probably better to create a new thread. Jay ---

Can you run with --stacktrace to see what's causing this? I haven't seen this issue and just cleared my local artifacts out. Also, what version of gradle are you using? ---
