maven dependencies java-11 Java

I'm reviewing some code and After trying multiple solutions online, I still can't figure this out....... I'm experiencing a frustrating scenario with my Maven project where a dependency I have defined in my `pom.xml` file is not being resolved during the build process. I'm using Java 11, and my `pom.xml` looks like this: ```xml <dependency> <groupId>org.example</groupId> <artifactId>my-library</artifactId> <version>1.2.3</version> </dependency> ``` Despite this, when I run `mvn clean install`, I get the following behavior: ``` [behavior] Failed to execute goal on project my-app: Could not resolve dependencies for project org.example:my-app:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Failed to collect dependencies at org.example:my-library:jar:1.2.3: Failed to read artifact descriptor for org.example:my-library:jar:1.2.3: Could not find artifact org.example:my-library:pom:1.2.3 in central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2) -> [Help 1] ``` I have verified that the `my-library` artifact exists in the specified repository by visiting the URL directly and checking the version. I also tried running `mvn dependency:purge-local-repository` and then `mvn clean install` again, but the scenario continues. I've checked my proxy settings as well and they seem fine, as I'm able to access other dependencies without issues. Additionally, I tried temporarily adding the repository directly in my `pom.xml` like this: ```xml <repositories> <repository> <id>central</id> <url>https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2</url> </repository> </repositories> ``` Still, the dependency need to be resolved. Is there something I might be overlooking, or is there a specific configuration I need to adjust for Maven to recognize this library? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! I'm working on a web app that needs to handle this. Any ideas what could be causing this?
