Question

I am trying to build a springboot project I built with Spring Tools Suite. I get the following error when I execute $mvn spring-boot:run

Downlo         


        

Answer 1

Make sure pom.xml exist in the directory, when using the mvn spring-boot:run command. No need to add any thing in the pom.xml file.

Answer 2

Adding spring-boot-maven-plugin in the build resolved it in my case

<build>
    <finalName>mysample-web</finalName>
    <plugins>
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <dependencies>
            <dependency>
                <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
                <artifactId>springloaded</artifactId>
                <version>1.2.1.RELEASE</version>
            </dependency>
        </dependencies>
    </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>  

Answer 3

Instead of using the full plugin name (with groupId) like described in Bartosz's answer, you could add

<pluginGroups>
    <pluginGroup>org.springframework.boot</pluginGroup>
</pluginGroups>

to your .m2/settings.xml.

Answer 4

Use mvn spring-boot:run. No mvn sprint-boot:run Error Writing.

Answer 5

You might want to add the following to your pom and try compiling

   <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>spring-snapshots</id>
            <url>http://repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot</url>
            <snapshots>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </snapshots>
        </repository>
    </repositories>
    <pluginRepositories>
        <pluginRepository>
            <id>spring-snapshots</id>
            <url>http://repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot</url>
            <snapshots>
                <enabled>true</enabled>
            </snapshots>
        </pluginRepository>
    </pluginRepositories>
