No authentication credentials configured

macalinao commented 12 years ago

I get the following error with Maven 3 on Ubuntu 12.04:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.github.github:site-maven-plugin:0.5:site (default) on project modthemodapi: No authentication credentials configured -> [Help 1]

My settings.xml is as follows:

<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0
                      http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
  <servers>
      <server>
      <id>github</id>
      <username>...</username>
      <password>...</password>
    </server>
  </servers>
</settings>

For some reason, this all works fine on my other computer. I know this settings.xml is getting loaded because it errors when I make the XML invalid.

Here's the output of `mvn -v':

Thanks in advance!

Updating everything to the latest versions solved everything.

Great to hear, please let me know if you have any other issues.

Another thing that's easy to forget (what I did to get the same issue) is to specify the server configuration property if you're using server authentication. Might be nice to have clearer error messages.

github / maven-plugins
