[FIXED] What should be in </distributionManagement> url

Issue

I'm trying to run a java (mvn) project by Jenkins job using the pipeline.

the cloning and the verify success but the deploy doesnt.

this is the error i got:

[main] [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-deploy-plugin:2.7:deploy (default-deploy) on project create_pass_criteria: Deployment failed: repository element was not specified in the POM inside distributionManagement element or in -DaltDeploymentRepository=id::layout::url parameter -> [Help 1]

i am trining to fix it by adding this code to my pom.xml

<distributionManagement>
        <repository>
            <uniqueVersion>false</uniqueVersion>
            <id>corp1</id>
            <name>Corporate Repository</name>
            <url>file:///home/myfolder/.m2</url>
            <layout>default</layout>
        </repository>
    </distributionManagement>

but how can i find the url that i should use ?

Thanks very much.

Solution

Usually you have two different entries in distributionManagement. One for releases and one for snapshots. This the url of your internal repository manager:

  <distributionManagement>
    <repository>
      <name>release repo</name>
      <id>releases</id>
      <url>https://repomanager.com/base/maven-releases</url>
    </repository>
    <snapshotRepository>
      <name>snapshots repo</name>
      <id>snapshots</id>
      <url>https://repomanager.com/base/maven-snapshots</url>
    </snapshotRepository>
  </distributionManagement>

The <id>..</id> references the entries in settings.xml file for authentication. The credentials should be configured in credentials store of Jenkins... (config file provider plugin in Jenkins is very helpful in such cases)
