Maven2 problem to access plugins repository !

Question

i just come to install maven2, after configuring the settings.xml in ${user.home}/.m2 and fixing a proxy error. Now by executing the command :

  mvn -U archetype:create -DgroupId=maven-test -DartifactId=maven-test     
    -DpackageName=net.ensode.maventest

i get this error :

[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'archetype'.
[INFO] org.apache.maven.plugins: checking for updates from central
[WARNING] repository metadata for: 'org.apache.maven.plugins' could not be retri
eved from repository: central due to an error: Authorization failed: Access deni
ed to: http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-metadata.xml

any idea of what could cause it ?

thanks !

我认为最可能的原因是您的代理服务器要求您进行身份验证，并且尚未将身份验证详细信息配置到settings.xml文件中。
