SBT > 1.0 NullPointerException in JavaNetAuthenticator

steps

Populating ~/.sbt/repositories file with

[repositories]
  local
  artifactory-libs-release: http://example.com/artifactory/libs-release
  artifactory-libs-snapshot: http://example.com/artifactory/libs-snapshot
  artifactory-plugin-release: http://example.com/artifactory/plugin-release
  artifactory-plugin-snapshot: http://example.com/artifactory/plugin-snapshot
  artifactory-libs-release-ivy: http://example.com/artifactory/libs-release , [organization]/[module]/[revision]/[type]s/[artifact](-[classifier]).[ext]

Populating ~/.sbt/0.13/plugins/credentials.sbt and ~/.sbt/1.0/plugins/credentials.sbt with:

credentials += Credentials(Path.userHome / ".sbt" / ".credentials")

Exporting

export SBT_OPTS=-Dsbt.override.build.repos=true
export SBT_CREDENTIALS=$HOME/.sbt/.credentials

Running

sbt clean test +publish

On a project with

  scalaVersion := "2.11.11",
  crossScalaVersions := Seq("2.11.11", "2.12.3")

build.properties

sbt.version=1.0.1

problem

The build fails with the following message:

build 12-Sep-2017 11:43:14 [error] unresolved dependency: io.netty#netty;3.7.0.Final: java.lang.NullPointerException at okhttp3.JavaNetAuthenticator.authenticate(JavaNetAuthenticator.java:37)

The project also relies on a plugin that has been cross-built to 0.13.16 and 1.0.0

expectation

The build to pass. Changing the sbt.version in build.properties to 0.13.16 works fine.

notes

sbt version: 1.0 and 1.0.1

Pretty crazy that this has not been fixed yet after more than a half year, anything we can do to get this going?

Thanks for the report.

Could you try the following as a workaround please:

updateOptions := updateOptions.value.withGigahorse(false)
