Solution

It seems that you are trying to resolve RELEASE artifact from a SNAPSHOT repository, therefore Artifactory is sending an error (409 conflict).

You should direct your build to 'libs-releases' virtual repository, or any other virtual repository that holds only releases, so only repositories that hold release artifacts will be involved in the process of RELEASE artifact resolution

You can read here more about resolution from Artifactory Maven repositories
