Springboot run failing on Eureka client dependency

Question

When I add this to my project parent pom:

    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
      <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-netflix-eureka-client</artifactId>
      <version>2.1.3.RELEASE</version>
    </dependency>

the project run fails like this:

When I remove the dependency, the project runs successfully.

I'm just trying to add a Eureka client to register center but it doesn't work. When I create a new project with Spring Initializr though, it works well.

Every answer helps.

Answer 1

This is a common Spring Boot <-> Spring Cloud version compatibility mismatch problem. Have a look at the Table 1. Release train Spring Boot compatibility section at spring.io/projects/spring-cloud:

Spring Cloud            <-> Spring Boot    

2020.0.x (aka Ilford)   <-> 2.4.x

Hoxton                  <-> 2.2.x, 2.3.x (Starting with SR5)

Greenwich               <-> 2.1.x

Finchley                <-> 2.0.x

Also see the complete list of all the spring-cloud-dependencies versions at Maven Central.

So in your case using Spring Boot 2.1.7.RELEASE, make sure to also use a Greenwich.SRx release (this is why Said Dekkaki`s answer works):

  <properties>
    <spring-cloud.version>Greenwich.SR6</spring-cloud.version>
  </properties>

Or better: upgrade to a newer Spring Boot version (as Neeush Sreenivas suggested):

<parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.2.RELEASE</version>
</parent>

Or even better: Use both the most current versions - as of writing: spring-boot-starter-parent with 2.4.1 and spring-cloud-dependencies with 2020.0.0.
