Spring Maven clean error - The requested profile "pom.xml" could not be activated because it does not exist

I'm trying to build a Spring-Boot *.war with maven, but I keep getting:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Total time: 0.600 s

[INFO] Final Memory: 6M/123M
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[WARNING] The requested profile "pom.xml" could not be activated because it does not exist.

After running the mvn: clean.

I have no idea why, I'm following this guide.

My pom.xml

After the success, maven generates a target folder in the project, it's containing only the Manifest.mf, pom.properties and pom.xml.

I'm a beginner using maven/spring and I haven't find any clues about what it might be. Any help would be appreciated.

I was getting this same warning everytime I was doing 'maven clean'. I found the solution :

Step - 1 Right click on your project in Eclipse

Step - 2 Click Properties

Step - 3 Select Maven in the left hand side list.

Step - 4 You will notice "pom.xml" in the Active Maven Profiles text box on the right hand side. Clear it and click Apply.

Below is the screen shot :

Properties dialog box

Hope this helps. :)

The warning message

[WARNING] The requested profile "pom.xml" could not be activated because it does not exist.

means that you somehow passed -P pom.xml to Maven which means "there is a profile called pom.xml; find it and activate it". Check your environment and your settings.xml for this flag and also look at all <profile> elements inside the various XML files.

Usually, mvn help:effective-pom is also useful to see what the real POM would look like.

Now the error means that you tried to configure Maven to build Java 8 code but you're not using a Java 8 runtime. Solutions:

  1. Install Java 8
  2. Make sure Maven uses Java 8 if you have it installed. JAVA_HOME is your friend
  3. Configure the Java compiler in your pom.xml to a Java version which you actually have.

This link has solution of how to get it working. Removing "pom.xml" from the "Profiles:" line and then click "Run".

  1. Right click on your project in STS/ Eclipse.
  2. Click Properties.
  3. Click Maven on Left Pane.
  4. Clear pom.xml in the Active Maven Profiles text box on right hand side.
  5. Apply and close.

Enjoy :)

Goto Properties -> maven Remove the pom.xml from the activate profiles and follow the below steps.

Steps :

Bumped into same warning. If you specified goals and built project using "Run as -> Maven build..." option check and remove pom.xml from Profiles: just below Goals:
