Project build error: 'dependencies.dependency.version' for org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-eureka-server:jar is missing

Question

I am developing a code from https://www.dineshonjava.com/microservices-with-spring-boot/. When I update the spring-boot-starter-parent from 1.5.4.RELEASE to 2

Answer 1

After setting the version:

    org.springframework.cloud
    spring-cloud-starter-netflix-eureka-client
    3.0.0

the error disappeared. Probably not the best solution for production.
