Answer 1

The file com/google/common/collect/ImmutableMap might be corrupted:

Deploying Maven project throws java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature)

If you are using eclipse and want to check whether this file is corrupted just try to open it. It is located in the guava maven dependency. If it is corrupted it will show you invalid LOC header (bad signature).

Then locate the locate the .m2 folder, search for the corrupted file and delete it. Finally run a maven update.

That solved the problem for me.
