-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Artifact Resolver config is ignored
                 Key: MNG-7850
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7850
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation:  General
    Affects Versions: 3.9.3
            Reporter: Cosimo Damiano Prete


Hi.
I've tried to follow the documentation at [https://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-resolver-transport.html] to migrate from Wagon to the new HTTP Artifact Resolver, but it's not clear to me where and how I should set the new {{aether.connector.http.preemptiveAuth}} property in order to make the resolver use it properly, like it was with Wagon.

My (template of the) {{settings.xml}} is as follows:
{code:xml}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
              xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    </settings>
{code}
but the property seems to be ignored, causing Maven to complain that's not able to find my artifacts.
As (hopefully temporary) solution, I'm setting the {{MAVEN_ARGS}} environment variable with the value {{{}-Daether.connector.http.preemptiveAuth=true{}}}.

The weird this is that, in {{{}DEBUG{}}}, I can see that somehow the property is applied and the credentials are picked up
{code:bash}
[DEBUG] Using transporter HttpTransporter with priority 5.0 for https://<artifactory-host>/artifactory/<repository>/
[DEBUG] Using connector BasicRepositoryConnector with priority 0.0 for https://<artifactory-host>/artifactory/<repository>/ with username=<username>, password=*** {code}
but, somehow, only once while when applying {{-Daether.connector.http.preemptiveAuth=true}} I can see the same logs multiple times (maybe once for every artifact).

Can you please provide some guidance/help on this?
I would also suggest to add to the documentation a/some example/s on how the migration should be really done.
