Maven - Error code 401, Unauthorized

Question

I just imported some maven projects in my eclipse IDE. But I have this error in the Eclipse projects:

Failure to transfer org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:pom:2.6 from https://intra.telecom.fr/CITnet/nexus/content/groups/public/ was cached in the local repository, 
resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of ecPublicRepository has elapsed or updates are forced. 
Original error: 
Could not transfer artifact org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:pom:2.6 from/to ecPublicRepository
 (https://intra.telecom.fr/CITnet/nexus/content/groups/public/): 
Access denied to https://intra.telecom.fr/CITnet/nexus/content/groups/public/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-resources-plugin/2.6/maven-resources-plugin-2.6.pom. 
Error code 401, Unauthorized    pom.xml

But I have already defined the access to the site intra.telecom.fr in the file C:\développement\apache-maven-3.0.5\conf\settings.xml :

Are you sure you are able to access intra.telecom.fr without proxy?? — Haider Ali, Sep 15 '15 at 12:54
I would suggest creating a `settings.xml` file in `yourUserHomeDir/.m2` and adding all of your specific settings there instead of modifying the `settings.xml` that comes with Maven. Eclipse may be using a different Maven install. If you put customizations in `yourUserHomeDir/.m2/settings.xml` it's likely both Eclipse and other Maven installs will find them. — user944849, Sep 15 '15 at 14:43

Encrypt your master password using command and put it in ~/.m2/settings-security.xml

mvn --encrypt-master-password  <your_master_pass>

Put encrypted master password into ~/.m2/settings-security.xml. For example, if you got string {p123=} content of file will be

<settingsSecurity>
  <master>{p123=}</master>
</settingsSecurity>

Encrypt your password to Maven repository by running following command: mvn --encrypt-password <your_repo_pass> and create ~/.m2/settings.xml with following content:

<?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" 
          xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
    <servers>
      <server>
        <id>id</id>
        <username>username</username>
        <password>{hashed-passwd}</password>
      </server>
   </servers>
</settings>
