401 from repo.jenkins-ci.org

I was unable to release my plugin:
https://github.com/jenkinsci/generic-webhook-trigger-plugin/blob/master/release.sh

[INFO] [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-deploy-plugin:3.1.1:deploy (default-deploy) on project generic-webhook-trigger: Failed to deploy artifacts: Could not transfer artifact org.jenkins-ci.plugins:generic-webhook-trigger:pom:1.86.6 from/to maven.jenkins-ci.org (https://repo.jenkins-ci.org/releases): authentication failed for https://repo.jenkins-ci.org/releases/org/jenkins-ci/plugins/generic-webhook-trigger/1.86.6/generic-webhook-trigger-1.86.6.pom, status: 401 Unauthorized -> [Help 1]

Tried the curl command, gave me 401:

curl -u "tomasbjerre:X" https://repo.jenkins-ci.org/setup/settings.xml
{
  "errors" : [ {
    "status" : 401,
    "message" : "Bad credentials"
  } ]

Logged on to https://accounts.jenkins.io/myself/ and changed the password, still same with the curl command.

Temporary problem?

Ulli Hafner had a similar problem today.  His issue was resolved when a repository administrator changed a setting on his account on the repository.  May be best for you to open an infra help desk ticket like https://github.com/jenkins-infra/helpdesk/issues/3680
