archiva extra file not visible


I'm trying to also upload a deployment plan for certain web application projects.

This file has the extension '.dat'.

I can upload the file to archiva successfully using the deploy:deploy-file command. (checked by calling the url and it's there)

The problem i'm having is that i can't see the file in the downloads box on the screen when browsing to it, which makes it pretty pointless to upload it to archiva if noone can see that it's there.

Is this archiva only showing certain file types or is this a caching issue?

Where can I find more information about what is being shown in that box?downloads box

archiva version: Apache Archiva 1.3.3


Solution

  • What you need to do is go to the "Repository Scanning" tab, and ensure that **/*.dat files are included in the list of artifacts to be detected. Afterwards, you will need to go t the "Repositories" tab and scan the repository again to have it appear.
