Maven is installed on my OS (ubuntu 20.04 64 bit) but not working. I tried removing line 17 from the build file but came up with different error.

Any ideas? I am on java 11 should i try downgrading to java 8?

I'm having similar problems, but I'm not overly familiar with Java versions and build systems, switching to Java 8 and and older version of gradle seems to help. Also using Intellij because it gives much better errors than eclipse.

Gradle 7.0 removed the 'maven' plugin and replaced it with 'maven-publish', so to use Gradle 7.0 the build.gradle file will need to be updated to take this into account.
