maven-plugins: Error creating blob: Not Found (404)

I’m hitting the following exception while running mvn site I tried with both my username password and an OAuth token

We’ve looked through the code. The URL in question seems to be https://api.github.com/user/emails. In our case, we’ve used an OAuth token that lacked the ‘user:email’ scope.

After adding that scope, it worked for us.

For me (using version 0.12) this was caused by authentication iues.

I fixed by changing from my github username and password in my maven settings to a personal access token

I granted the following to the token:

repo
user:email

In my ~/.m2/settings.xml in the github server config, I just put my created token as the password with no username:

    <server>
          <id>github</id>
          <password>(my private token)</password>
    </server>
