Cannot publish new artefact to webdav repo with maven plugin

strindberg · January 19, 2015, 11:47am

We use the (old) Maven plugin to publish to to a Cloudbees repository using webdav. It works well for some of the sub projects, but we get a strange error on some sub projects. It seems as though when publishing a sub project which haven’t previously been published, the repo demands some further authentication, and this extra authentication fails.

Here’s the configuration:

configure(subprojects.findAll { [‘statistik-service’, ‘liquibase-runner’, ‘statistik-web’].contains(it.name) }) {

apply plugin: ‘maven’

configurations {

deployerJars

}

dependencies {

deployerJars “org.apache.maven.wagon:wagon-webdav:1.0-beta-2”

}

ext.cloudbeesUsername = System.properties[‘cloudbeesUsername’]

ext.cloudbeesPassword = System.properties[‘cloudbeesPassword’]

uploadArchives {

repositories {

mavenDeployer {

configuration = configurations.deployerJars

repository(url: “dav:https://repo.forge.cloudbees.com/snapshot/”) {

authentication(userName: cloudbeesUsername, password: cloudbeesPassword)

}

This works for statistik-service and statistik-web, but fails for liquibase-runner with the following stacktrace:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong:

Execution failed for task ‘:liquibase-runner:uploadArchives’.

Could not publish configuration ‘archives’

Error deploying artifact ‘se.inera.statistik:liquibase-runner:jar’: Error retrieving previous build number for artifact ‘se.inera.statistik:liquibase-runner:jar’: repository metadata for: ‘snapshot se.inera.statistik:liquibase-runner:2.0-SNAPSHOT’ could not be retrieved from repository: remote due to an error: Unsupported Protocol: ‘dav’: Cannot find wagon which supports the requested protocol: dav

Try:

Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

Exception is:

org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ‘:liquibase-runner:uploadArchives’.
