It's established that links won't work for deployment of multi-module
sites [1], i.e. links don't work for
% mvn site site:deploy
But I can get
% mvn site:stage-deploy
to deploy a 'staged' site to a remote URL [even the same URL specified
by ${project.distributionManagement.site.url}] and the site links
*work*.
First question ...
If links can be made to work using 'site:stage-deploy', why can't they
be made to work for 'site:deploy'?
Second Question ...
If I configure an execution of the 'stage-deploy' goal with
<stagingSiteURL>${project.distributionManagement.site.url}</stagingSiteU
RL>
I'm prompted for an LDAP password at multiple steps during the
deployment. This does not occur when using the simple 'deploy' goal, by
virtue of a settings.xml <server> element with <username> and <password>
defined for the target host.
Why is this?
