[HELP] Unable to commit files with Maven release plugin

Hi,

I'm trying to prepare the release for tomcat-parent-6.0.24 (
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/external/trunk/tomcat-parent-6.0.24).


But after I launched "mvn release:prepare", I always get the error below in
the end. Could anyone give any hints about this?

Thanks in advance!

[INFO] Unable to commit files
Provider message:
The svn command failed.
Command output:
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: MKACTIVITY of
'/repos/asf/!svn/act/6feb0aa2-505c-4c06-92ec-f700066fd3ab': authorization
failed: Could not authenticate to server: rejected Basic challenge (
https://svn.apache.org)

I just tried again, the problem disappeared. Seems there is delay to
synchronize SVN credential.Plain commit and release plugin both work fine
now. Thanks David!

I don't really understand how the svn client does security but I had  
to manually log in to svn a couple times with my new password before  
it stuck and I could do a commit without logging in to svn.  Have you  
tried a plain commit, not through the release plugin?

thanks

Thanks David and Kevan!

I have updated my password at https://svn.apache.org/change-password. But
the error still occurs. Any suggestion?

You should have received an email from Tony Stephenson yesterday on  
the apache committers list explaining how you need to update your  
apache password so you can continue to use apache's nexus and svn.
