[m2e-users] 401, Authentication is required

[Ivo Panacek <ivo.panacek@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am not able to download artifacts from my repository using m2e,

everything works using mvn command.

my setup:

- repository is up-to-date Artifactory 2.3.1 with user/password required

behind SSL using Apache

- repository is on RHEL server

- that repository is also configured as a mirror

- client machine is Ubuntu Linux 10.4

- Sun java - build 1.6.0_22-b04

- eclipse - Helios SR1 - build 20100917-0705 (all updates until now)

- cmdline maven 3.0 (works)

- m2e 0.12.0.20101115-1102

There was discussion about index downloading - it works - it tries

anonymous access twice and then uses user/password third time

so decryption of passwords works.

But then it tries to download artifact ... again 3 times ... all times without user/password.

It leaves just a file under .m2/repository with ".lastUpdated" extension

in which it saves last message, which ends with "401, Authentication is required".

I have tried many combinations: clear text passwords, encrypted passwords, passwords

in url like this: https://login:password@servername/

result is the same.
