How to fix Non-resolvable import POM: com.google.cloud:spring-cloud-gcp-dependencies

Trying to build spring-cloud-gcp from https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/spring-cloud-gcp
Many failed compile/install attempts due to failed tests (unit and checkstyle) - decided to just disable and/or not fail due to tests - great, that worked, entire build (all sub projects) compiled
Wanted to deploy the spring-cloud-gcp-data-firestore-sample (pom is below) to Cloud run, so changed the parent reference in the pom (as suggested/documented in the pom).
Now can't compile/install spring-cloud-gcp-data-firestore-sample and get this error "**Non-resolvable import POM: com.google.cloud:spring-cloud-gcp-dependencies:pom:2.3.12.RELEASE was not found in https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2**"
I've tried:
Adding additional spring maven repos to the pom (see pom below) - no luck, and based on the error message maven doesn't even seem to be checking the added repo's
referencing/using different versions of the spring-boot-starter-parent - no luck, nothing changed in the error
mvn -U clean compile - no luck
Anyone got any ideas? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

You are inheriting version for com.google.cloud:spring-cloud-gcp-dependencies from project.version, which is 2.3.12.RELEASE in your case.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-gcp-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>${project.version}</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
When in fact, you want to specify a valid version as listed in maven repository.

How to configure CircleCi for running a JVM option?

Context:
I have a Maven (Spring Boot, Vaadin, MongoDB) Application and I had the problem that the default SSL protocol was wrong, so I added in IntelliJ IDEA under VM Options:
-Djdk.tls.client.protocols=TLSv1.2
It worked fine.
Problem:
After that i tried to add this JVM argument to CircleCI (environment -> JAVA_OPTS) but i didn't work.
config.yml:
jobs:
- maven/test
test:
maven/test:
environment:
# Configure the JVM and Gradle to avoid OOM errors
_JAVA_OPTIONS: "-Djdk.tls.client.protocols=TLSv1.2"
So i tried to add a .mvn directory to my Project route and added a jvm.config file and also added the arg.
jvm.config file
config.yml
version: 2.1
orbs:
maven: circleci/maven#1.1
workflows:
maven_test:
jobs:
- maven/test:
I don't know how to continue.
Can anyone help me?

Using a Maven pom.xml file to contain a single, compatible version of a class of ConfigurableApplicationContext

I have a project that uses a Maven build configuration in IntelliJ.
I keep getting the following error:
The method's class, org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext, is available from the following locations:
jar:file:/C:/Users/tlmitch/.m2/repository/org/springframework/spring-context/5.2.8.RELEASE/spring-context-5.2.8.RELEASE.jar!/org/springframework/context/ConfigurableApplicationContext.class
The class hierarchy was loaded from the following locations:
org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext: file:/C:/Users/tlmitch/.m2/repository/org/springframework/spring-context/5.2.8.RELEASE/spring-context-5.2.8.RELEASE.jar
Action:
Correct the classpath of your application so that it contains a single, compatible version of org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext
If I do a cntrl-shift-n and look for the class ConfigurableApplicationContext - it does come back with a list of 8 instances where the class exists.
From what digging I've done, it seems I should be looking at my pom.xml file for an artifactId of spring-context, and then putting in exclusion blocks that excludes all but one of the references.
Problem is, I can't find artifactIds in the pom.xml file that seem to correspond to the duplicate references. And if I just start excluding stuff at random I get into a lot more trouble than I start with.
Here is a shot of the multiple instances of the class:
And I've attached the pom.xml file.
If anyone could just point me in the right direction. Thanks so much; been having trouble making headway with this.

What's wrong with my pom.xml using liferay and maven (can't read dependencies.dependency.version)

When I try to maven build I get the following error into my project. I'm using eclipse, maven and liferay:
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[ERROR] [ERROR] Some problems were encountered while processing the POMs:
[ERROR] 'dependencies.dependency.version' for com.liferay.portal:portal-service:jar must be a valid version but is '${liferay.version}'. # line 98, column 13
[ERROR] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for com.liferay.maven.plugins:liferay-maven-plugin must be a valid version but is '${liferay.maven.plugin.version}'. # line 16, column 14

How can I avoid the error above?

If you want to pass version as the property you have to define them:
<properties>
<liferay.version>your_liferay_version</liferay.version>
<liferay.maven.plugin.version>your_maven_plugin_version</liferay.maven.plugin.version>
</properties>

You configured the versions in a profile.
If you don't need profiles, dont use any, and configure the resources globally (for your pom) in
<project><properties><liferay.version>....</liferay.version>
if you want to use profiles, you can read :
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html

JHipster Eclipse project running out of memory in "main"

I am building up a baseline JHipster project with no bells and whistles involved (no clustering, etc.).
I am following the exact tutorial steps using my standard Node-enabled (of course) command line, and am then importing the project into Eclipse as a Maven Project. Everything looks like it should be working fine based on reviewing the project, except when I try to run it on the server or build it using the mvn command line...
Error Message
INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/7.0.12
Exception in thread "main"
Exception: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError thrown from the UncaughtExceptionHandler in thread "main"
POM/Maven
From what I can tell, this may be a POM dependency error, but if so then I am having a heck of a time figuring out which. My project is directly configured to use JRE 1.7. My POM is below. Another thought is that it is directly related to the original NPM install from Hipster (after POM):

NPM
Looking at what is being responded by NPM at initial JHipster generation, I am actually seeing errors in those logs as well, noted below. Does anyone have any background on this?
2400 verbose etag pad-stdio from cache
2401 error Error: No compatible version found: findup-sync#'^0.1.2'
2401 error Valid install targets:
2401 error ["0.1.0","0.1.1","0.1.2","0.1.3"]
2401 error at installTargetsError (C:\ProgramFiles\nodejs\node_modules\npm\lib\cache.js:719:10)
2401 error at C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\lib\cache.js:638:10
2401 error at saved (C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\node_modules\npm-registry-client\lib\get.js:142:7)
Even with this error, I was able to manually include findup-sync with a direct npm install findup-sync#0.1.2, but this did not resolve my error with the Tomcat instance.
Back to Maven/POM
It must be something else specifically to do with com.sun:tools.jar... Looking through my POM, but if anyone has experienced this before with JHipster, please give me a shout.
Thank you for the help!

There were 3 issues here:
My Eclipse configuration was pointing to a JRE rather than a JDK (which contained the right com.sun:tools jar). In order to make the correct updates, however, it wasn't as simple as updating my JAVA_HOME variable and moving on... See steps 1-5 below.
The StackOverflow article describing this is noted here: Maven 3 Artifact problem
My application-dev.yml properties file was not pointing to a generated database. Eclipse was simply having trouble generating the connection pool, and rather than throwing a descriptive error, would bomb out instead. See step 8 below.
My project was a spring-boot project and therefore wasn't able to be executed on the general Tomcat Server in Eclipse. See step 9 below.
Summary of Resolution
Change %JAVA_HOME% to JDK
Update eclipse.ini with the following lines:
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_25\bin\
Update Eclipse preferences : 'Window > Preferences > Java > Installed JREs' > delete and add new JDK
Update project properties : 'Project > Properties > Java Build Path' > delete old JRE and add new JDK
Close all open command prompts and active servers (that might be caching what %JAVA_HOME% was... I spent an hour before I realized this)
mvn clean package
Tell SureFire to be skipped during build in POM
Make sure to update your application-dev.yml file to point to a real database (executing in Eclipse just shows that there was an exception of memory loss, but running mvn spring-boot:run will give you better error reporting).
If it is a spring-boot application, run it as a spring-boot application, not directly on the Tomcat Server in Eclipse. I haven't yet researched why this is such a pain, but I'll come back to that later. Please add detail in the comments if you know.
< skip>true< /skip> ...minus the extra spaces
The problem with running things in Eclipse first rather than Maven - the error logging is terribly misleading!
