Maven 3.9.0: Unable to parse maven.config file options: Unrecognized option: --settings .mvn/settings.xml
Hello,
I saw that Maven 3.9.0 was just released (congrats!) and I tried upgrading my projects. Sadly they failed with this error message:
----
Unable to parse maven.config file options: Unrecognised option: --settings .mvn/settings.xml
----
My projects indeed have a .mvn/maven.config file which contains (amongst other options) '--settings .mvn/settings.xml’ for project-specific settings.
When I remove that line from .mvn/maven.config and supply it on the command line (e.g. ./mvnw --settings .mvn/settings.xml) then it works fine, but I wonder why it doesn’t work when I put this option in .mvn/maven.config. Is this an intentional change in Maven 3.9.0, should I do this differently or is this maybe a bug?
Nils.

Well, I’ve been using Maven for about 15 years and I didn’t know that you could use that format. The output of ‘mvn --help’ shows the options with a space instead of an equals sign, e.g.:
-s,--settings <arg> Alternate path for the user
settings file
So, that’s why we’ve been using spaces.

Why would you do that though, and not
--settings=.mvn/settings.xml
The intention is to disallow spaces. The fact that spaces are allowed on
command line is unfortunate.

Thanks for the link. When I replace this:
--errors
--show-version
-DinstallAtEnd=true
-DdeployAtEnd=true
--settings .mvn/settings.xml
with this:
--errors
--show-version
-DinstallAtEnd=true
-DdeployAtEnd=true
--settings
.mvn/settings.xml
in .mvn/maven.config then it indeed works, but I think this new format looks more confusing than the old one. And we have hundreds of projects that we’d need to make this change for…

Howdy Nils,
something similar was discussed here:
https://lists.apache.org/thread/274g9dqj812rzs31q2xmj8tms0kv7wvk
Yes, there was a change that seems to have made it a bit stricter than it
was before.
Michael?
