Maven: Trying to Deploy with credentials in settings.xml file

Question

This seemed to be working last week and now it doesn\'t.

• We use Artifactory as our Maven repository.
• I am deploying a jar and pom using the deploy:d

Answer 1

You can also specify your snapshot repository id in distributionManagement

<distributionManagement>
<repository>
  <id>releases</id>
  <url>${env.MAVEN_RELEASE_REPOSITORY_URL}</url>
</repository>
<snapshotRepository>
  <id>snapshots</id>
  <url>${env.MAVEN_SNAPSHOT_REPOSITORY_URL}</url>
</snapshotRepository>
</distributionManagement>

the ids here should match ones in servers

Answer 2

You need to provide the repositoryId=VeggieCorp (not id) property so that maven knows from which <server> configuration it has to read the credentials.

$ mvn deploy:deploy-file \
 -Durl=http://repo.veggiecorp.com/artifactory/ext-release-local \
 -Dfile=crypto.jar \
 -DpomFile=pom.xml \
 -DrepositoryId=VeggieCorp
