Question

I'm facing an error in my pom.xml file given below:

Plugin 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-maven-plugin:' not found 

Below is my pom.xml :

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"          xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">     <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>     <parent>         <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>         <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>         <version>2.3.5.RELEASE</version>         <relativePath/> <!-- lookup parent from repository -->     </parent>     <groupId>dev.che</groupId>     <artifactId>stu</artifactId>     <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>     <name>stu</name>     <description>Demo project for Spring Boot</description>      <properties>         <java.version>1.8</java.version>     </properties>      <dependencies>         <dependency>             <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>             <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>         </dependency>         <dependency>             <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>             <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>         </dependency>          <dependency>             <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>             <artifactId>spring-boot-devtools</artifactId>             <scope>runtime</scope>             <optional>true</optional>         </dependency>         <dependency>             <groupId>com.h2database</groupId>             <artifactId>h2</artifactId>             <scope>runtime</scope>         </dependency>         <dependency>             <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>             <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId>             <scope>test</scope>             <exclusions>                 <exclusion>                     <groupId>org.junit.vintage</groupId>                     <artifactId>junit-vintage-engine</artifactId>                 </exclusion>             </exclusions>         </dependency>     </dependencies>      <build>         <plugins>              <plugin>                 <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>                 <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>             </plugin>         </plugins>     </build> 

How can I fix this error?

Answer 1

I fixed the problem adding the version of the plugin in the pom.xml, which is the same of spring boot's version.

So you just have to configure your pom like this:

<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>  <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>  <version>${project.parent.version}</version>  

Answer 2

i fixed the problem adding a version of the plugin in the pom.xml

<version>${project.parent.version}</version>
