Hello,

I did have the same issue. The problem was that I misread the documentation. server-username and server-password are actually the name of the environment variable (and not the value) that contain repectively the username and the password. (see here)

Instead of having:

- name: Set up Apache Maven Central
      uses: actions/setup-java@v4
      with: # running setup-java again overwrites the settings.xml
        ...
        server-username: ${{secrets.username}}

Do this:

- name: Set up Apache Maven Central
      uses: actions/setup-java@v4
      with: # running setup-java again overwrites the settings.xml
        ...
        server-username: THIS_IS_A_VARIABLE_USERNAME
- name: Publish
      run: mvn deploy
      env:
        THIS_IS_A_VARIABLE_USERNAME: ${{secrets.username}}
