How to set up docker image to authenticate with private maven repository?

[sschuberth]

Please see https://oss-review-toolkit.org/ort/docs/guides/docker#authenticating-with-a-private-git-repository-fails which describes the solution based on a .netrc file. You basically need the same, but with a Maven settings.xml file mounted to ~/.m2/settings.xml inside the container.

I have tried with /home/ort/.m2/settings.xml and ~/.m2/settings.xmland /root/.m2/settings.xml, it did not work.

status code: 401, reason phrase:  (401) and 'parent.relativePath' points at no local POM @ line 19, column 13

I could run mvn clean package successfully in this container, but ort analyze failed. Any dependency in private jfrog could not be downloaded.

I am also facing the same issue as described by @BinchenQ.

@sschuberth: Can you please advise here, thanks

In this specific case from @BinchenQ it seems like the parent POM is hosted elsewhere, like another host, which might require different authentication than the primary project under analysis. Hard to say without more details...

Hi, in my case, the following appplied:

Running ORT locally in a VM with Ubuntu:
Only the solution with .gitconfig worked for private repositories.
The .netrc file is recognized when running with --debug, but the request leads always to "Not Authorized".

Running ORT locally in Windows:
Only the solution with .netrc worked for private repositories, the same .gitconfig who worked on the VM, didn't.
The log with --debug showed, that ORT tried to find a .netrc file, which was not present, so that one led to "Not Authorized".
