Liferay 6.2 first application build failed

I'm new to Liferay, so I started with the tutorials on the official developer website (https://dev.liferay.com/develop/learning-paths/mvc/-/knowledge_base/6-2/writing-your-first-liferay-application).

When I create my first portlet I'm getting the Build Failed error below:

I have no idea why I get this message since I basically followed the steps in the tutorial. I looked online for similar cases but it hasn't been helpful yet.

Edit:

What happens at line 81 in build-common-ivy.xml : (line 81 is the /> ending the second get)

I use two ways to create a Lifery project. Going the Easy path

Download needed stuff

Download The Liferay IDE or Eclipse plugin from here

https://www.liferay.com/downloads/liferay-projects/liferay-ide

Download the SDK or the whole plugins (i prefer this last option)

https://github.com/liferay/liferay-plugins/releases

Pick the one matching your Liferay

When you open liferay IDE it will ask for your SDK. Put the sdk path (or the plugins folder)

Creating a project

Just go to new Liferay Project, and select the Type of project. Personally I always go for maven project.

Then you should be good to go

Bit More Complicated Way

Go to the extracted plugins path to the portlet folder (if your intent is a porlet) and call the create.sh command

liferay-plugins-6.2.0-ga1/portlets$ ./create.sh myPortlet
Buildfile: /home/jimmy/Liferays/plugins-src/liferay-plugins-6.2.0-ga1/portlets/build.xml

create:
     [copy] Copying 9 files to /home/jimmy/Liferays/plugins-src/liferay-plugins-6.2.0-ga1/portlets/myPortlet-portlet
    [mkdir] Created dir: /home/jimmy/Liferays/plugins-src/liferay-plugins-6.2.0-ga1/portlets/myPortlet-portlet/docroot/WEB-INF/tld
     [copy] Copying 7 files to /home/jimmy/Liferays/plugins-src/liferay-plugins-6.2.0-ga1/portlets/myPortlet-portlet/docroot/WEB-INF/tld

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 second

Then import that to your favourite ide, Since you have many plugins you can use that as a reference for you custom portlets.

Hope it helps
