I am using Maven for a new Java project. After generating the project using one of the Maven artifacts, I've tried to generate Maven wrapper scripts inside the project. For this purpose I am using the new Maven plugin and goal wrapper:wrapper, however I am getting the following error: wrapperVersion not supported for Maven 3.8.1, it must be at least 4
mvn wrapper:wrapper ⇣82.8 KiB/s ⇡2.76 KiB/s 192.168.2.110 77.29.199.151 100% ─╯

Java Version:

Maven version:
Apache Maven 3.8.1 (NON-CANONICAL_2021-04-26T21:52:54Z_root) Maven home: /opt/maven Java version: 11.0.11, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "linux", version: "5.12.4-arch1-2", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"
OS version: Arch Linux Maven should contain the wrapper script starting from Maven 3.7, which shouldn't be a problem because I am using Maven 3.8, but the error message for version 4 is confusing for me and I have no idea where to look for answers.
Sometimes the answer is in front of us, but tired eyes can make us blind :D
As @JFabianMeier said, there is no Maven 3.7 and Maven wrapper scripts are included starting from Maven 4.0
