>                 Key: MSITE-435
>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-435
>             Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: site:deploy
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-7
>         Environment: software platform
>            Reporter: Abraham Kiggundu
>
> When the site:deploy plugin is ran in interactive mode it prompts you for 
> your username and password. On a Hudson build server we run maven in batch 
> mode.
> The command line below:
> mvn site:deploy --batch-mode
> will always fail the build due to the following error
> Cannot connect. Reason: Auth cancel
> the only temporary workaround to fix this at the moment is to have the user 
> credentials in your pom as below
>     <site>
>       <id>docs</id>
>       <name>Release Documentation Website</name>
>       <url>scp://[USER]:[passwo...@[machine]/{location uri}/</url>
>     </site>
> In contradiction the distribution management works fine with the following 
> pom setup
> <distributionManagement>
>   <repository>
>     <id>id</id>
>     <name>the id</name>
>     <url>scp://[us...@[machine]/{location uri}/</url>
>   </repository>
> </distributionManagement>
> and never prompts you for user credentials always grabing them from the 
> settings .xml
