[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-2162?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin... ] Gerry Matte commented on FORGE-2162: ------------------------------------ Sorry for the delay - Christmas holidays .... No change when I deleted the config.xml file (in windows located at %USERPROFILE%\.forge\config.xml) Below is the DOS execution log with the error message. I followed it with the newly recreated config.xml because there seem to be some unusual enteries that utilise ampersand lt and & gt and I see that the password was not saved with the connection profile.
