I don't know. I would expect the answer is in the maven-antrun-plugin source code, and having just glanced at it now, I don't see any specific location where such proxy information is handed off to Ant (but it may be happening despite not seeing it obviously stated via system properties or something): http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/tags/maven-antrun-plugin-1.6/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/antrun/AntRunMojo.java?view=markup If you determine that proxy information is not being passed to Ant, and you patch this code to pass proxy info to Ant, please contribute it back via JIRA for the benefit of other users. I should also mention the setproxy Ant task which may be an easier route to a solution for you: http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/setproxy.html > Question: how does maven get best informed about the preferred authentication > schemas to be used by the proxy server > i.e. -Dhttp.auth.preference=Basic as described by the ORACLE documentation > for JAVA and at many other places. There appears to be an open JIRA related to this specifically: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3049 > Question: If ant is first and picks up and works would you expect for maven > that ant tells maven about proxy info to be used?

As Stephen already stated, you should just pull down the Nexus binary and run it on Windows, then point your OpenVMS Maven at it. > BTW: Then I took the latest binary version of a nexus-webapp.war down to my > OpenVMS, I untared it on OpenVMS as we do with Axis2 or maven. > It fails during startup on Tomcat and Java 6.0.

I bet you are the first person (in the world, perhaps) to attempt such a thing. Feel free to communicate that log to Sonatype directly and they may be able to work with you to fix their code so it runs properly -- the Maven Users list is not the right place for such complaints/discussion. I did look at the log and it has a NFE for input string "1." which seems to be the root problem: Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "1." at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:48) at java.lang.Long.parseLong(Long.java:419) at org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos.generationFromSegmentsFileName(SegmentInfos.java:199) Wayne --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
