Vitaly Sidorov commented on MNG-5917:
-------------------------------------
For Artifactory authentication in a browser and in the maven-deploy-plugin
works in different ways.
Authentication in the browser uses Form Authentication and therefore works
correctly with umlauts.
Authentication maven-deploy-plugin works via Basic Authentication.
(Maven-deploy-plugin -> Maven Wagon -> commons-http-client -> Basic
Authentication)
Server with Basic Authentication supports according to standard only encoding
"ISO-8859-1". Reaction to the other encodings is undefined.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7242316/what-encoding-should-i-use-for-http-basic-authentication
So it's not a bug maven. Artifactory does not support UTF-8 encoding via Basic
Authentication.

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Settings
> Affects Versions: 3.3.3
> Environment: Fedora GNU/Linux 22
> Oracle Java 8.0.51
> Reporter: Christian Kalkhoff
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: close-pending
>
> My password to Artifactory contains a german umlaut (äöüÄÖÜß). I saved it
> either encrypted and plain to settings.xml.
> When I run release:perform the deployment breaks because artifactory refuses
> the password.
> I had a look with wireshark and the credentials contain a '?' where the
> umlaut should be.
> Logging in to artifactory using the web interfaces works with the password.
