i know that maven is included in spring framework, and when i check the directory, the jars are there.

How can I solve this error?

Answer 1

The relevant part of the error message is:

invalid LOC header (bad signature)

which suggests some binary file being broken, most likely one of the dependencies. If you have a fast Internet connection, just delete your whole maven repository and let maven redownload all the dependencies:

rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/*
