Archiva Security Configuration
- Security properties and password rules can be configured in the
- <<<security.properties>>> file, which by default is searched for in:
+ Security properties and password rules are configured now in the Redback Runtime Configuration
+ properties (see {{{./redback-runtime-configuration.html#Runtime_properties}Redback Runtime Configuration}}).
- * <<<~/.m2/security.properties>>>
-
- * <<<conf/security.properties>>> in the Archiva installation
+ The Redback Runtime Configuration properties are stored in <<<archiva.xml>>>.
+ The former <<<security.properties>>> file, if it exists, is only used once for populating the
+ Runtime Configuration settings. After that, this file will be ignored.

- (In the above list, <<<~>>> is the home directory of the user who is running
- Archiva.)
~~TODO: Link to plexus-redback documentation when available
- Following are some of the properties you can modify. For a complete list,
- consult the default properties file in Redback's svn repo:

Managed repository fields:
- * <<identifier>> - the id of the repository. This must be unique.
-
- * <<name>> - the name of the repository.
-
- * <<directory>> - the location of the repository. If the path specified does not
- exist, Archiva will create the missing directories.
-
- * <<index directory>> - the location of the index files generated by Archiva. If
- no location is specified, then the index directory (named <<<.indexer>>>)
- will be created at the root of the repository directory.
- This directory contains the packaged/bundled index which is consumed by different consumers of the index such as M2Eclipse.
-
- * <<type>> - the repository layout (maven 2 or maven 1)

- repository scanning will be executed.
-
- * <<repository purge by days older>> - the first option for repository purge.
- Archiva will check how old the artifact is and if it is older than the set
- number of days in this field, then the artifact will be deleted respecting
- the retention count of course. In order to disable the purge by
- number of days old and set Archiva to purge by retention count, just set the
- repository purge field to 0. The maximum number of days which can be set
- here is 1000. See the Repository Purge section below for more details.

-
- * <<repository purge by retention count>> - the second option for repository
- purge. When running the repository purge, Archiva will retain only the
- number of artifacts set for this field for a specific snapshot version. See
- the Repository Purge section below for more details.
-
- * <<releases included>> - specifies whether there are released artifacts in the
- repository.
-
- * <<block re-deployment of released artifacts>> - specifies whether released
- artifacts that are already existing in the repository can be overwritten.
- Note that this only take effects for non-snapshot deployments.
-
- * <<snapshots included>> - specifies whether there are snapshot artifacts in the
- repository.
-
- * <<scannable>> - specifies whether the repository can be scanned, meaning it is
- a local repository which can be indexed, browsed, purged, etc.
-
- * <<delete released snapshots>> - specifies whether to remove those snapshot
- artifacts which already has release versions of it in the repository during
- repository purge.
