Maven: Trying to Deploy with credentials in settings.xml file

You need to provide the repositoryId=VeggieCorp (not id) property so that maven knows from which <server> configuration it has to read the credentials.

$ mvn deploy:deploy-file \
 -Durl=http://repo.veggiecorp.com/artifactory/ext-release-local \
 -Dfile=crypto.jar \
 -DpomFile=pom.xml \
 -DrepositoryId=VeggieCorp
