Java – “received fatal alert when deploying to sonatype: bad_record_mac”

Try deploying to the sonatype repository (sometimes!) When, I get this stack trace:

According to the suggestion here, I set:

MAVEN_OPTS="-Dhttps.protocols=SSLv3 -Dforce.http.jre.executor=true"

It still doesn't help I'm using:

$java -version
java version "1.7.0_07"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea7 2.3.2) (7u7-2.3.2a-0ubuntu0.12.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.2-b09,mixed mode)

Any ideas?

PS. I asked the same question on JDK7 dev mailing list, but I haven't got any useful answers yet

Solution

Since January 19, 2013, the sonatype OSS configuration has been adjusted, which may solve this problem
