I’m using the dependency mechanism of the play framework to download libraries (see http://www.playframework.org/documentation/1.2/dependency). However one of our maven repositories is not public and requires a username/password in order to acquire artifacts from it. They are set up in $USER_HOME/.m2/settings.xml but Play seems to ignore this. So where can I specify login credentials that Play can use to successfully download artifacts from non-public repositories?

    Play! does not use Maven to build the application, but Apache Ivy instead (sbt will be used in Play! 2.0). However, Apache Ivy relies on Maven repositories to grab the dependencies.

    So in your case, I think that you have to create a .ivy2/ivysettings.xml file and define the credentials there to give the correct access to Play!.
