Tamas Cservenak commented on MNG-8409: -------------------------------------- This is not true. I have maven3 encoded password and this is what I get: {noformat} [cstamas@angeleyes ~]$ mvnenc diag [WARNING] [WARNING] Some problems were encountered while building the effective settings [WARNING] Pre-Maven 4 legacy encrypted password detected - configure password encryption with the help of mvnenc to be compatible with Maven 4. @ /home/cstamas/.m2/settings.xml [WARNING] Configuration validation of MavenSecDispatcher: VALID Configuration file present on path /home/cstamas/.m2/settings-security4.xml Default dispatcher configured Configured default dispatcher configuration is valid Legacy dispatcher present in system Legacy dispatcher is operational; transparent fallback possible Configuration validation of MasterDispatcher: VALID Configured Cipher supported Configured Source configuration valid Configuration validation of PinEntryMasterSource: VALID Configured pinentry command exists and is executable Configuration validation of LegacyDispatcher: VALID Legacy configuration found with encrypted master password Legacy master password successfully decrypted [cstamas@angeleyes ~]$ {noformat} Maven4 _warns_ about presence of Maven3 (obfuscated, non safe) passwords. Your problem is this: {noformat} [ERROR] Caused by: Error building settings: [WARNING] Pre-Maven 4 legacy encrypted password detected - configure password encryption with the help of mvnenc to be compatible with Maven 4. @ /Users/lprimak/.m2/settings.xml, [ERROR] Could not decrypt password (fix the corrupted password or remove it, if unused) {j+UOfoxrhI0HeHa6AdQ6bVmnq6iZg/ptTGSYBCfSYsVnQlW/fZLWBIk6sXEQsECIYvYk8DhsF874JOGiw0LTiQ==} @ /Users/lprimak/.m2/settings.xml, {noformat} This means you have a _non decodable password_ (even with Maven3). To continue, mvn4 requires you to remove this, as log tells. > No upgrade path for settings-security.xml > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-8409 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8409 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 4.0.0-beta-5, 4.0.0-rc-1 > Reporter: Lenny Primak > Priority: Blocker > > There is no upgrade path to mvnenc from current settings-security.xml > Everything is failing if settings.xml has maven 3-type passwords. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
