> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: WAGON-401
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/WAGON-401
> Project: Maven Wagon
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wagon-http
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Robert Scholte
> Assignee: Herve Boutemy
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.6
>
> Attachments: accessdenied-test.patch
>
>
> In the last week of August 2013 the policy of Maven Central has been changed.
> Files like {{maven-metadata.xml}} now require a {{User-Agent}} in their
> request.
> Otherwise it will fail with an Access Denied status.
> The preferred solution is an adjustment of the policy at Maven Central, but
> it wouldn't harm if Wagon would set the User-agent.
> The attached could be considered as a smoketest.
> *Update:* In the second week of September 2013 the requirement has been
> reverted.
