cant publish npm package to gitlab registry

I am trying a simple setup to publish a node package into gitlabs package registry. I created a project from the gitlabs node express template. But when I run npm publish I am getting the following error

npm notice Publishing to https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<project_id>/packages/npm/ with tag latest and default access
npm ERR! code EPRIVATE
npm ERR! This package has been marked as private
npm ERR! Remove the 'private' field from the package.json to publish it.

The project where I want to upload the package to is in the following path https://gitlab.com/root-group/my/path/prj. So prj is just an empty project that should act as a package registry.

The project I want to upload looks as follows.
package.json

    {
  "name": "@root-group/prj",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node ./bin/www",
    "test": "mocha --exit"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "cookie-parser": "^1.4.5",
    "debug": "^4.3.1",
    "express": "^4.17.1",
    "http-errors": "^1.8.0",
    "morgan": "^1.10.0",
    "pug": "^3.0.2"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "mocha": "^9.0.0",
    "supertest": "^6.1.3"
  }
}

.npmrc

@root-group:registry=https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<registry_project_id>/packages/npm/
//gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/<registry_project_id>/packages/npm/:_authToken="<access_token>"

It doesnt even matter what access token I use, the same error occurs even with a random string.

Ok that is embarassing. In the package.json was the setting private: true.

I just had to remove that.
