Play Framework not working after updating macOS to Catalina

Question

I was using play framework in mac. After updating the macOS to Catalina. I am not able to run the command "play deps",which was working fine earlier.

I want to run play deps, to download dependencies, but seeing this error -

jyotimahansaria@Jyotis-MacBook-Pro ~/Documents/Bytemark/Backend_Work/play-1.3.1/myApp $ play deps
~        _            _ 
~  _ __ | | __ _ _  _| |
~ | '_ \| |/ _' | || |_|
~ |  __/|_|\____|\__ (_)
~ |_|            |__/   
~
~ play! 1.3.1, https://www.playframework.com
~
Error: Could not find or load main class play.deps.DependenciesManager

I tried creating a simple new app and trying to run, getting below errors -

1. Run Inside play folder

Answer 1

I removed everything related to play and setup the play again, this time in Applications instead of Documents and it's working completely fine.
