Answer 1

Deleting the .m2 folder manually helps sometimes

Your .m2 folder might be corrupted and it doesn't permit you to create new or replace existing with new .m2 folder, so delete the existing .m2 folder manually by entering the below commands.

To view the existing .m2 folder

ls -ltra

To Delete it manually

sudo rm .m2
