Last time you asked: " > <siteAddress>maven.apache.org</siteAddress> > <siteDirectory>/www/maven.apache.org/</siteDirectory> This is the web site address and directory, not a repo???" :) I was sure that you just wanted to get sure that I use distributionSite and distributionDirectory. distributionSite is not described in http://maven.apache.org/reference/project-descriptor.html While distributionDirectory: Optional. The directory on the web server where the final distributions will be published. This is used when the distributions are deployed (the word deployed is a hyper link which points to "site" plugin) I though that "final distributions" are the distribution of artifacts delivered by projects: jars, javadoc, project src zipped, Now I see I finaly understand that you might want e.g to publish "distribution" of entire project at sourceforge... and not to deploy to any repository. If I am still wrong: can you then explain briefly the difference? I want to centralized the code which does remote copying of the files And I see now that "distribution" requires special handling ... I will/want to change my code to support it. BTW: For the moment I have tested my API with username, user password kept in properties file. I think such approach is not acceptable. You can use command line to pass properties to maven: maven war:deloy -Dmaven.repo.ibiblio.password = ****** This is already better ... but still not perfect. I will try to implement/use(if I find one) simple "Prompter" which will ask to type your password (eventually to enter other required parameters which are missing) regards Michal --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
