I am trying to create executable JAR file for my spring boot application.
To achieve this spring-boot-maven-plugin has been used with main class specified and packaging to jar.
Unfortunately after running output JAR file i receive java.lang.ClassNotFoundException pointing to my main class.
Below is my pom.xml and main class. Thanks in advance for help.
pom.xml:

Short answer:
Looks like you're using the ZIP layout when you should be using the JAR layout. Change <layout>ZIP</layout> to <layout>JAR</layout> in your Spring Boot maven plugin declaration.
Longer answer:
Take a look at the docs which describe the ZIP layout as:
ZIP (alias to DIR): similar to the JAR layout using
PropertiesLauncher.
And of which the PropertiesLauncher is described in the docs as:
Launcher for archives with user-configured classpath and main class
via a properties file...
Looks in various places for a properties file to extract loader settings, defaulting to application.properties... No default, but will fall back to looking for a Start-Class in a MANIFEST.MF
If you want it to be user specified in your Jar file, specify (or check and see if you have one already) in the meta-inf folder of your Jar, or specify the property yourself.
After several days dealing with various plugins, finally I could make a fat jar (spring boot) with externalize config files everywhere I wanted to be. You can use the following plugins:"config" is the path for your config files next to the jar file.

I'm trying to use google text to speech but there is a problem with the imports:
import com.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1.AudioConfig;
import com.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1.AudioEncoding;
import com.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1.SsmlVoiceGender;

import com.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1.TextToSpeechClient;
import com.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1.VoiceSelectionParams;
It shows various errors where it's using the same modules from different packages:
java: module google.cloud.texttospeech reads package com.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1 from both google.cloud.texttospeech and proto.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1
I have these requirements in my module-info file:
requires proto.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1;
requires google.cloud.texttospeech;
I also get a yellow warning with these requirements:
Name of automatic module 'proto.google.cloud.texttospeech.v1beta1' is unstable, it is derived from the module's file name.

Contact the maintainers of the google-cloud-texttospeech library and ask them to provide documentation (and perhaps an updated implementation) for using their library from a modular Java app.
In the meantime go to openjfx.io and review documentation on non-modular JavaFX apps and try following it.

If I remove the module-info file to make it non modular that does indeed solve this problem.
I am developing a project with Maven for the first time. I have an external package that I have converted into a .jar file and installed into maven in order to use its classes. However, even tho the package is already in the .m2 folder maven still says that it cannot find the package(util):
[ERROR]/home/luis/Desktop/git/sifu/Challenges/Java/java_0002_SN/stringNorm/src/main/java/stringNorm/MyDetector.java:[14,27] cannot find symbol

I have already tried to add this new dependency(util) to the pom file and so far it looks like this:

I am using spotbugs to perform analysis on my code, as you can see from the snipet.
The class within the unit package I want to use, is the report one, my import statement looks like this `import util.*;
I installed my jar file to maven using this command: mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DgroupId=<group-id> -DartifactId=<artifact-id> -Dversion=<version> -Dpackaging=<packaging>
and after doing it I added it into the pom file.
My util package is composed of 3 classes, I did jar cfv util.jar * inside the util folder and gave me a jar file.
I can not generate proper WAR file for Tomcat.
I am using MAVEN 3.6.1, Java 12.0.1 and IDE Eclipse. My app is working fine when I run it in eclipse (Run as > Spring Boot App) but the problem is when I am trying to run my WAR file after generate it.
I am doing java -jar .war and I am getting:
Error: Could not find or load main class com.blw.linemanager.Application
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.blw.linemanager.Application
I was googling and reading stackoverflow cause I found many post about it but still can not run it. What I am doing wrong?
After some reading I figured out that I have some how configure maven-war-plugin (am I right?) and in pom I did some changes but it does not help.

Also because on the beginning I was getting error 'no main manifest attribute' I add it and now it looks like this
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
Is my way of think wrong? Should I be able to run .war file as java -jar .war or this is missunderstanding?
#SpringBootApplication
public class Application extends org.springframework.boot.web.support.SpringBootServletInitializer {
public static void main(String [] args) {
SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(Application.class);
app.run(args);
}
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder builder) {
return builder.sources(Application.class);
}
}
It is better to get a working spring boot application from here to avoid versions conflicts and the like.
For a war-file deployment (into a local tomcat for example), your application must extend SpringBootServletInitializer:
#SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootTomcatApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(SpringBootTomcatApplication.class, args);
}
#Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder builder) {
return builder.sources(SpringBootTomcatApplication.class);
}
}
Change in your pom the packaging to war.
<packaging>war</packaging>
To generate a war-file you need just the spring-boot-maven-plugin:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
And yes you don't need the maven-war-plugin. Just for testing purposes let's annotate our application with #RestController and introduce a simple endpoint:
#RestController
#SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootTomcatApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
...
#RequestMapping(value = "/")
public String hello() {
return "Hello World from Tomcat";
}
}
In the Local terminal (in eclipse Ctrl+Alt+T) just enter mvn package than copy the generated war-file from target folder, paste it under the webapps folder of your local Tomcat, request http://localhost:8080/{your-application-name} and you should see the message Hello World from Tomcat.
Now you can add the dependencies you need and continue coding.
Add packaging type with version detail in pom.xml like
<packaging>jar</packaging>
or
<packaging>war</packaging>
Then, append build tag to define name of jar / war like,
<build>
<finalName>YOUR-APP_NAME</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Then, run your application with goal
clean package
to create jar/war in target folder.
Rename your war file to ROOT like ROOT.war
Last step to copy your created jar/war in tomcat webapps folder and start tomcat.
My supervisor asked me to convert an old Maven project we have lying around into a Spring Boot project such that we are able to access the project's backend via RESTful interaction (before that the project's backend was only accessible via a console interface).
So, first I added a simple Spring Boot application in a separate package of project. After that I began to extend the pom.xml of the project by the dependencies needed for Spring Boot and adjusted the overall project setup. Now, I tried to run the backend of the old project, which turned out to be working. However, the simple Spring Boot application did not.
I narrowed down the problem to a conflicting dependency in the "old" part of the pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j-api</artifactId>
<version>2.6.1</version>
</dependency>
When I leave this dependency in the pom.xml the old backend works, but the Spring Boot application fails with the following error:
WARN: Cannot find template location: classpath:/templates/ (please add some templates or check your Thymeleaf configuration)
If I comment this dependency out the Spring Application works completely fine, but the old backend fails. I use the version 2.0.4.RELEASE of spring-boot-admin-starter-server. I think that the old backend's version of the logging package is different from the one included in spring-boot-admin-starter-server. However, I somehow need both versions in my project.
What's not possible:
Updating the old sources, since some of them have a coyright of an
external company
What I already tried, but I wasn't successful with:
Exclude the logging from then Spring Boot depedencies. This results in the following error:
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.
I also to tried to work with the shade plugin as some suggested from my web research. Unfortunately, I was not able to solve the problem with this approach.
Does anyone have suggestions how to solve this problem? I would be very grateful. I am not used to solve dependency problems of this kind. Please excuse me, if I am missing something obvious.

EDIT: I just found out that if you remove the version element inside of the conflicting dependency the Spring Boot Application works, but unfortunately the backend then fails.
So I found a solution, but that's probably not the best way to do it:
I just replaced the <spring-boot-dependencies.version>2.0.4</spring-boot-dependencies.version> with an older version that is compatible with the conflicting logging dependency, namely version 1.4.7.RELEASE.
This is the latest version at which both the Spring Boot application and the backend are working simultaneously (found that out by try-and-error).
Anyway, thank you very much for your help.
Cheers
I`m working in a EAR project with Maven which has 2 modules. Images speaks louder than words, so let me show you the structure:
Parent pom project and modules
sigea-model contains model, repository and service layers (The "M" in MVC). sigea-web contains web pages and controller beans (VC) and sigea-ear is just a wrapper to package the other 2 modules in a EAR package.
Configuration files in modules
As you can see, sigea-ear has an empty META-INF folder. Both beans.xml files in sigea-model and sigea-web are just empty marker files because AFAIK, CDI by default search in all annotated classes (but this is not the problem right now). persistence.xml is a simple file which uses JTA transactions with a connection pool (which is working because I ping from the Glassfish's admin console and is successful).
Finally, when I package the application I get the following:
As you can see, there's no persistence.xml. All this came out because I deployed the application successfully but in the first click I got the Exception
javax.ejb.TransactionRolledbackLocalException: Exception thrown from bean
...
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unable to retrieve EntityManagerFactory for unitName null
Here are my pom files:

pom.xml[sigea-model] is not important as it just defines some dependencies for test and is configured to generate a package with the test classes, which are used in sigea-web for test purposes also.
Finally the question: What's failing in my configuration that doesn't package the persistence.xml file? If that's not the problem for the IllegalStateException with the message shown above: What are posible causes for that exception?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
I solved the problem by changing a dependency. In sigea-model I had
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
<version>5.1.0.Final</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
Which I used to manage the persistence context for my test methods. I didnt inquire very much in the Glassfish JPA provided implementation but maybe it's Eclipse Link instead of Hibernate. Apparently there are some incompatibility issue between those libraries. I movedhibernate-entitymanager` to compile scope, like this:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
<version>5.1.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
And now the projects compile with no problem. It was also useful the comment made by khmarbaise, it simplified the project configuration, thank you very much.
