Problem getting maven plugin from jfrog artifactory-CodePudding

I'm trying to get an old maven project connected to private artifactory to download plugins when building. I'm sitting in a coporate network (using vpn), using a jfrog artifactory.

"mvn clean install -U" returns:

Downloading from company-releases: https://artifactory.**.de/artifactory/**/1.0.2/*-1.0.2.pom

maven looks at the correct place. I'm able to download it with curl:

curl -u username:password -X GET "https://artifactory.**.de/artifactory/**/1.0.2/*-1.0.2.pom"

but if I paste that path into Chrome, I get an 404 Error.

I also configured the settings.xml in my C:/Users/Username/.m2/ folder:

<server>
  <id>company-releases</id>
  <username>my_username</username>
  <password>my_password</password>
</server>

I also checked the possible errors of the Link shown at the bottom of the log, but as I'm able to "curl" it these don't seem to be the reasons. Currently I'm out of ideas. I hope you can help me :) Please tell me if you need to see additional sources.

CodePudding user response：

okay, the solution was to set preemptive authentification in settings.xml:

for example:

     <server>
         <username>*****</username>
         <password>*****</password>
         <id>central</id>
         <configuration>
           <httpConfiguration>
             <all>
               <usePreemptive>true</usePreemptive>
             </all>
           </httpConfiguration>
         </configuration>
     </server>

Explanation: maven first tries to request without authentification. If the Repo is private (this means that without authentification, artifacts are hidden), jfrog artifactory responses with 404 instead of unauthenticated. After 404 maven doesn't try again, but sees it as failed.
