How to generate a project from an archetype in an authenticated repository? The server id used to download the artifact is [archetypeArtifactId]-repo: you have to define corresponding server configuration in settings.xml with this id. > -----Original Message----- > From: Greg Thomas [mailto:greg.d.tho...@gmail.com] > Sent: Friday, February 17, 2012 4:37 AM > To: users@maven.apache.org > Subject: Specifying credentials with archetype:generate > > If I have a Maven repo that requires authentication, how do I specify > the credentials for that repo when using mvn archetype:generate? > > You can specify the URL of the repo using the archetypeRepository > parameter - but I can see no way of tying that up that up with the > credentials specified in settings.xml that is used to supply > credentials. The <server> tag in settings.xml doesn't take a URL, and > archetype:generate doesn't take a server id. > > As a result, I can't generate a new project from an archetype in a > password protected repo, as I just get 401 unauthorised. > > Thanks for any advice, > > Greg > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org ______________________________________________________________________ This message, including any attachments, is confidential and contains information intended only for the person(s) named above.
