Re: Help with formulating an announcement

2026-01-28 Thread Tamás Cservenák 
Howdy,

I made a somewhat big change in the very first paragraph: this is not
a Maven "bug", but the change happened in Maven revealed a
"concurrency bug" in Nexus 2. It is not Maven that wrongly creates
multiple staging repositories, but it is Nexus.

I think the same is worded in Maven GH issue too:
https://github.com/apache/maven/issues/11634

"Due to improvements in parallel PUT method ... bugs of concurrency
processing in some repository managers can be disclosed."

Thanks
T

Re: Help with formulating an announcement

2026-01-27 Thread Tamás Cservenák 
(sent too quickly)

Hence, it must be passed as _user property_ to the Maven instance
doing deploy (against staging endpoint):
* can be done as in ASF Parent POM (release plugin passes it to
invoked Maven instance performing deploy to RAO)
* can be done by adding `-Daether.connector.basic.parallelPut=false`
user property on CLI
* can be done by adding file in project root `.mvn/maven.config` with
contents `-Daether.connector.basic.parallelPut=false` (see
https://maven.apache.org/configure.html#mvn-maven-config-file)
* can be done in user ~/.m2/settings.xml by adding a property to a
profile that is always enabled

Thanks

Howdy,

Workaround (done in ASF Parent POM 37) is to disable parallel PUTs.
See 
https://maven.apache.org/resolver-archives/resolver-1.9.25/configuration.html
and look for the configuration key `aether.connector.basic.parallelPut`.

Note: this is a resolver property, and cannot be set as POM project property!
The workaround implemented in ASF Parent POM passes it to the release plugin,
that _invokes_ Maven to perform release on the checkout.
