Javier Diaz commented on ARCHETYPE-204: --------------------------------------- I managed to run the command against an authenticated repository creating an entry in settings file with id <archetype-name>-repo. Detailed steps: 1. Add an entry in settings.xml file: <server> <id><archetype name>-repo</id> <username>myuser</username> <password>XXXXXX</password> <filePermissions>664</filePermissions> <directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions> <configuration></configuration> </server> 2. Run the generate command: mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=mygroup \ -DarchetypeArtifactId=<archetype-name> \ -DarchetypeVersion=XXXXX -DgroupId=com.abc \ -DartifactId=dummy \ -Dversion=1.0.0-SNAPSHOT \ -DarchetypeRepository=http://www.abc.com/maven2 \ And that did the trick. I couldn't find any documentation of this. You can take a look at the class DefaultArchetypeGenerationConfigurator.
