Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:3.0.0:exec (default-cli)-CodePudding

I just started to learn spring boot. I only coded a simple hello world program but whatever i try i can't fix this problem.

There is my pom file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I've tried to add main class and some plugins to the pom file but none of them seem to worked. And i changed the java version on pom but that didn't work either.

CodePudding user response：

The issue is java version. You are using Java 8 with Spring Boot 3.0.0 and that is incorrect because Spring Boot 3.0.0 only supports Java 17. So there are two ways to fix the problem.

Upgrade Java version from 8 to 17 and try again.
Use old version of Spring Boot i.e 2.7.6 and try again.
