VSCode Maven For Java autogenerated pom.xml is faulty

I have installed the Maven For Java extension on VS Code on a Mac M1 with jdk17 installed. When I create a new Maven Java Project from the Java Projects tab, and specify the quickstart archetype, a new blank Maven project is created with a default pom.xml. Intellisence detects multiple problems with the XML file. Here are the problems:
VSCode problems tab
Also, the run and debug buttons that should appear next to the main method of App.java are not there and the java projects tab does not contain a project:

I have tried creating a blank project(without maven) and that one works fine, I can create a project and run it.

'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin is missing

Trying to get familiar with maven and taking an online course and am stuck .... appreciate any help provided.
I'm running the Site phase and although it completes and I'm able to actually view index.html in a browser I am getting a lot of errors along the way, specifically:
'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin is missing
Have no idea why it's generating this error. As you can see below I have the version in both dependency and plugins. And I tried all I can find on sites. Why does it think the version is missing? Any ideas how to resolve? thanks in advance for any help!

Removing the following 2 dependencies from <dependencies> should fix all the errors. These 2 are maven plugins and not required in <dependencies> section.
When you include these 2 as dependencies, maven-project-info-reports-plugin is trying to generate dependency report for these 2 plugins and failing. Hence you are seeing those errors.

Executing spring-boot:run when not inheriting from spring-boot-starter-parent

I have a spring-boot maven project, which cannot have spring-boot-starter-parent as a parent due to organizational restrictions. I came across the following answer which helped me with compiling, testing and packaging an executable jar.
However when I try to execute spring-boot:run i receive the following error:
No plugin found for prefix 'spring-boot' in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repositories
The following comment in the answer seems to point to away to fix this:
The code snippet above is sufficient to get the dependency management features. If you want plugins (like spring-boot:run) you need to confute those separately. You can copy paste from the Boot parent if you want
However after adding the proposed section to my pom file I still get the same error. My pom files can be found below:

Package missing on maven build

I'm trying to run a JUnit test in Travis CI using Maven, but every attempt makes me face the same error:
[ERROR] \luiz.kill\Workspace\hawickjames\src\main\java\com\lzkill\main\CountElementaryCircuitsFromRFC.java:[3,24] error: package org.jgrapht.graph does not exist
I also see this when I use m2e to fire Maven, the dependencies don't even show up Eclipse as if the download was not processed.
It really looks like a javac problem. How can I make the download succeed and the compiler find the right jars?
Here's my pom.xml:

You did not specify any dependencies only which version to use if you declare a dependency.
Remove the the dependencyManagement tags and you are set.
DependencyManagement helps you resolve version conflicts and is a good idea in a parent pom of multiple related projects. But it does not declare a dependency.
