Hi Sonatype community,

I am sorry, but I can’t anymore. After following the [article](https://central.sonatype.org/publish/publish-maven/) on how to publish to maven central, maven deploy still refuses to corporate with me. To my setup: I have a settings.xml file with the tokens generated by [sonatype.com](/content/site-root.html) But those wont work on the [Nexus Repository Manager](https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/). Where can I create an account for this site? I appended the error log and because new users can’t upload anything I appended my pom.xml also here.

Any constructive and targeted help is very welcome!

Best regards pizzadox9999

Hi this isn’t the right forum and I don’t have the ability to move posts. You’d want to ask your question in Central forum.

Hi, it is solved. How can I close/delete this topic?
