I was creating a new Maven project , i started with this command
mvn -archetype:generate

On hitting this command i am getting a weird error message which says "the desired archetype does not exists"
I have attached screenshot

I have created a similar maven project a month back and i had no issues then , but suddenly i am getting this message

Can somebody help resolve it

Hi there

I am new to Maven as well.I see '-' after mvn on your code.
Below command works.

mvn archetype:generate

Hope it helps.
