Comment (by aaime):

 Important note, it's not the jar that goes missing, it's the maven-
 metadata.xml file that does.
 When working with snapshots, maven creates a timestamped directory and
 jars within, the maven-metadata.xml file tells clients how to go from
 "SNAPSHOT" to the actual pom and jar files. The maven-metadata.xml seems
 to be correctly uploaded, but after some time, it disappears. Without it,
 the clients don't know how to get to the jar and report it missing.
