Try to install Jsoup with maven,

Question

i'm trying to install Jsoup library with maven. I've followed all steps but every time i get the same error:

I can't solve this one, (my java home and path are set well).

name of java directory: java-8-oracle.

java version: java version "1.8.0_171"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_171-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.171-b11, mixed mode)

@Alfredo Pipoli, sometimes you just have to clean your project, delete .m2 repository and rerun maven install. — Abhilash, Jun 26 '18 at 21:04

It seems like you are building the JSoup library from sources. While you can do that, you don't have to. The more standard way would be to add the library as a dependency to your own project. If you use maven, add this code to the <dependencies> section of your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jsoup</groupId>
    <artifactId>jsoup</artifactId>
    <version>1.11.3</version>
</dependency>
