Kindly which OS are you using? Alternatively follow this link How to Install Apache Maven on Windows, macOS, and Linux? - GeeksforGeeks to fix the issue basing on your OS.
okay i switch to what OS
I wouldn’t recommend using apt to manage Maven. 3.6.3 is from 2019, so the package in the universe repo clearly isn’t being kept up-to-date (you’re immediate issue is you need to enable installations from the universe repo, which is disabled by default on Ubuntu).
You can follow the steps on this tutorial or install something like SDKMAN to manage the installation for you.
What is the output when you run this command mvn -v?
Is jdk (because Maven needs it to execute) already installed?
Kindly follow the steps on this link link and feel free to share were you are stack
I mean installing maven since jdk is already installed
Are you using a linux operating system?
