Maven Deploy 401

Hello Gitea forum,

i am currently trying to setup gitea actions with the maven repository described by this tutorial: https://docs.gitea.com/usage/packages/maven. this is my current build.yml file:

name: SwingSupport Building by Gitea Actions
run-name: SwingSupport Building by Gitea Actions
on: 
  push:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  Build SwingSupport:
    runs-on: native
    steps:        
      - name: Checkout
        run: git clone https://x-access-token:${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}@url/${{ github.repository }}.git
          
      - name: Build and Deploy with Maven
        run: |
          cd ./${{ github.event.repository.name }}/        
          mvn -s /var/lib/gitea-runner/maven_settings.xml -Downer=${{ github.repository_owner }} clean deploy -DskipTests

and i am currently struggling with a 401 exception:

Failed to deploy artifacts: Could not transfer artifact :pom:1.0.3 from/to gitea : status code: 401, reason phrase: Unauthorized (401) -> [Help 1]

my settings.xml from /var/lib/gitea-runner/maven_settings.xml

the token is use is generated from a user called runner specifically created for this token.

<settings>
  <servers>
    <server>
      <id>gitea</id>
      <configuration>
        <httpHeaders>
          <property>
            <name>Authorization</name>
            <value>token {the token i generated from the web ui}</value>
          </property>
        </httpHeaders>
      </configuration>
    </server>
  </servers>
</settings>

does anybody know how to fix the 401 error? Best regards hanz
