Maven Build Error when compiling YCSB: "Error reading assemblies"

[maxkra]

I am trying to compile the YCSB Project with the clean package command as suggested in the Getting Started pages. The project is downloaded from the github site as a .zip, got unzipped and no changes have been made. I get an Build Error when compiling that says:

Please copy/paste the output of "mvn --version".

What platform are you on? (Windows, centos, Ubuntu, etc)

Your maven version is too old; we require maven 3.

Do you need to compile some local changes? If not, you could download one of the convenience binaries and run ycsb without updating your maven install.

[maxkra]

Ok thank you so much! That was the Problem.
I have to compile local changes as i have to develop some own workloads.

I have updated maven but I am still getting this error:
