问题:

I checked out my code from the Nexus repository repository. I changed the password for my account and set it correctly inside my settings.xml file. While executing mvn install clean I get the error saying Not authorized, ReasonPhrase:Unauthorized when it tries to download files from that repository.

Any idea how to solve this error? I am using Windows 7 with Maven 3.04

回答1:

The issue may happen while fetching dependencies from a remote repository. In my case, the repository did not need any authentication and it has been resolved by removing the servers section in the settings.xml file:

<servers>
    <server>
      <id>SomeRepo</id>
      <username>SomeUN</username>
      <password>SomePW</password>
    </server>
</servers>

ps: I guess your target is mvn clean install instead of maven install clean

The problem here was a typo error in the password used, which was not easily identified due to the characters / letters used in the password.

You have an old password in the settings.xml. It is trying to connect to the repositories, but is not able to, since the password is not updated. Once you update and re-run the command, you should be good.
