I am trying to run a Small basic Spring boot program on my machine and I when I run clean compile (even before trying spring-boot:run) on maven I get the following Error :

And here is my java Class :

package com.benayed.spboot.poc.SpringBootPoc;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootPocApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(SpringBootPocApplication.class, args);
    }

}

I tried many solutions I could find on internet, such as deleting the .m2 repository, adding different tags (version, fork,...) to the spring-boot-maven-plugin plugin which, I'm pretty sure, is the part causing the problem

Any suggestions ?

You have 0 compile dependencies, only test-compile dependencies defined, because you've commented out spring-boot-starter-data-jpa. Spring starter's pull other dependencies in (including other starters) to create everything needed at compile time. Un-comment the spring-boot-starter-data-jpa dependency, and/or re-evaulate what dependencies you actually want.

This worked ! as well as the answer of Do Nhu Vy, I have a question though: why do I need to add that dependency ? since I am including a parent in my pom, this means that all the dependencies I need are retrieved from that parent so why I have to add another dependency in order for my project to compile - FrankelStein 2018-02-18 16:56
The parent POM is for managing dependencies, they are all optional, thus you need be explicit and define them yourself - Darren Forsythe 2018-02-18 16:59

You need add this dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>

then it will work.

If the parent declares dependencies, which are inherited, that would be correct. However, the Spring Boot parent only declares dependencyManagement, which will only manage versions and scope, but the dependencies itself are not added in child projects - dunni 2018-02-18 20:48

Add the below section outside dependency management and do an update of project. And then the clean install of maven.

<parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.10.RELEASE</version>
    </parent>

And the below dependency.

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
    </dependency>

If does not fix (Not Likely to happen) then add the other dependencies mentioned here
