             Summary: Saved password with french accent breaks deployment
                 Key: MNG-6245
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6245
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Settings
    Affects Versions: 3.5.0
            Reporter: Dominique Jean-Prost
            Priority: Critical


I cannot deploy any artifact to my sonatype nexus instance when using a pasword with french accetn, like 'é'.
This instance needs authentication to deploy.
My test : 
# Check authentication against nexus directly with a password containing accent : OK
# Check deploy with clear password in {{settings.xml}} with no accent : OK
# Check deploy with encrypted password in {{settings.xml}} with no accent : OK
# Check deploy with clear password in {{settings.xml}} with accent : KO
# Check deploy with encrypted password in {{settings.xml}} with accent : KO

After many minutes of debugging, I managed to verify that my password is correctly "read" in the settings {{org.apache.maven.settings.Server}} : it has nothing to do with {{settings.xml}} XML encoding.

When finally wagon enters the game, the http header with authentication basic contains a '? ' instead of my 'é'. I managed to narrow the problem to {{org.apache.maven.wagon.providers.http.httpclient.impl.auth.BasicScheme}} which I think is the cuplrit by not dealing correctly with charset encoding in the {{authenticate}} method.

I came to the end of what I can do for the moment, appart of changing my password to remove the accent.
