mvn install error: package does not exist

I have this scenarion:
I have a maven project with spring boot where i just have some tipical pojo classes inside this package structure like: com.demo.core
pom structure
<properties>
<java.version>1.8</java.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>

<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
com/demo/core/Person.java
Then im trying to use that base project as a dependency of other spring boot project which is responsible of database persistence.
here i use spring data, lombok and others.
Second project pom dependencies:
<properties>
<java.version>1.8</java.version>
</properties>

<plugins>
<plugin>

</plugins>
</build>
I run mvn clean install in base project and verify that the jar file is in my local .m2 repository structure.
when i try to run mvn clean install in the second project i got an error saying that the package com.demo.core does not exits therefore did not find classes inside that package.

Have any one a clue how to solve this???
Im using:
Spring Tool Suite 4
Version: 4.5.0.RELEASE
java-8-openjdk-amd64
maven 3.6.0
springboot version 2.1.11
Thanks in advance.
There is something new to me, when i review inside jar file the structure is like this:
Jar structure generated by spring boot
For some reason i changed the maven config in eclipse to use the installed and not the embedbeb one, but now i get this error.

I found another solution when you have two or more springboot projects and you want to wire them one as dependency of others.
The solution is not to use spring-boot-maven-plugin, this plugin override the normal package of the jar causing your classes and package structure to move under BOOT-INF/classes.
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>

I solved the problem, springboot project generated a diferent jar structure configured in the metainf file, so that classes are not pleced in the tipical folders.
what i did was to change the core project to a simple maven project with out spring boot complexity, and now the second project (springboot one) compiled without problems.
There was not nescessary to have the base project as a springboot one.

Jenkins Error:- [ERROR] error reading /home/oci/.m2/repository/org/apache-extras/beanshell/bsh/2.0b6/bsh-2.0b6.jar; invalid LOC header (bad signature)

I have created a maven project and try to run it with Jenkins.
Below is my Jenkins error:-
I am learning how to run a maven project in Jenkins but Jenkins has given me this error(invalid LOC header (bad signature)) do I need to add the dependency for this also.
but I already did that and still, I am facing this issue.
I have commented on some of the plugins.
There are more error in Jenkins, check that too, please

It seems very simple so I must have some problem with configuration.
There is a demo project with pom:

What am I missing?
EDIT:
Obviously, I did mvn clean install on demo project. Funny thing is I can use with:
javac -cp .m2/repository/com/example/demo/0.0.1-SNAPSHOT/demo-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar <any java file here>
EDIT:
Last part of mvn -X:

Here are few suggestions:
Run your broken build with "mvn -X clean install" for debugging. The log should include what repo. URLs Maven is looking for each dependency.
Unzip your jar file to verify classes you want are included or not.

Maven didn't found package com.example in this configuration.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.example</groupId>
<artifactId>demo</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency>
So you must install this package as local package by use command: mvn clean install in the first project.
Or you can also install it as 3rd party package by using:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile={your directory}\demo-{version}.jar
-DgroupId=com.example
-DartifactId=demo -Dversion={version} -Dpackaging=jar
After install correctly, it will works.

Maven runs JUnit tests in Eclipse but compilation fails from the command line

I have created a very simple project in Eclipse to run a very simple JUnit test. These tests work fine when tests are executed from within Eclipse, but the code does not compile when run via maven command line.
The command I am using to run maven is simply 'maven test'. The following is the maven output:
MacBook-Pro:leonard-reference-test randy$ mvn test

import org.junit.Test;
public class ReferenceTestClient

System.out.println("simple test");
}
}
That's it... no other files in the project. Maven tests run successfully from within Eclipse, but the code doesn't even compile from within Maven.
A valid pom.xml file, or other modifications to this simple project, is appreciated.

You have your file in src/main/java/ directory but the scope for the JUnit dependency is test. This means maven will not take it into account when compiling non-test code. Please put your file in src/test/java.

Test scope means that junit is only available in src/test/java

Android Robolectric packages not found. Unknown packaging: apk

Hi I'm trying to use the maven android plugin and robolectric to get tests working. Right now I just have one test class which is under src/test.... I've followed the instructions here to try and get this working: http://pivotal.github.com/robolectric/maven-quick-start.html

I think you might have that problem due to the order of the test dependency in the pom file. Move the junit one to be the last one or at least behind the robolectric one. That should fix it.
Check out the working robolectric sample app for more comparison.

I did make sure that all dependencies were listed before the android dependencies
Actually the order of dependencies does matter, in the link your provided yourself, see the important comments in the sample pom.xml:
<!-- Make sure this is below the android dependencies -->
<dependency>
<groupId>com.pivotallabs</groupId>
<artifactId>robolectric</artifactId>
<version>X.X.X</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.8.2</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
From my own experiences, I think this library is still in a development stage, their API is not stable and change quite a lot between different version, code working in a old version for example 0.9.4 may not working in 1.0-XX or later. try download/use the latest versrion from there sonatype repository

So I was having the same problems too. For what it's worth, I wasn't using maven or gradle, here's how I fixed this issue.
In your Test class:
Make sure the Roboelectric library is first in the list of dependencies (In IntelliJ, click on your project in the Navigation Pane and hit F4).
import org.junit.runner.RunWith; <- The RunWith annotation is actually part of JUnit.
import org.roboelectric.RoboeletricTestRunner;
I hope this helps!
