I'm using Intellij 13, I've been using Maven quite happily for awhile now to manage the JAR dependencies.
But the last few I've imported are causing a broken classpath issue, and they're not being installed to the repository.
I though it might be just the JSONPath library, but when I tried to install Selenium drivers it also happened with those libs. I checked the local repository and the directories exist, but the JARs haven't downloaded.
This only started happening recently, and a lot of other dependencies have been installed fine (but not since this issue started happening). I'm really not sure what might have caused it.
Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this? Or why the JARs aren't installing? And can I just trigger an update somehow from Intellij to try to reinstall them?
Quick Edit Here:
I tried installing the modules using Intellij's "add library" feature. It installed them fine, whereas before I was just updating them directly in the pom.xml and it was downloading them.
The library feature seems a little better because it automatically adds them to my output artefacts anyway, but it would be nice if it also updated the pom so I can use it outside of the intellij environment.
So I'm not sure why updating the pom.xml isn't working any more...
I've had this issue in IntelliJ IDEA 2017 Ultimate.
After changing dependency versions, the IDE was unable to fix the path on its own. I went to my ~/.m2 directory and deleted all of the dependencies for the problem jar and then executed the "ReImport All Maven Projects" action. When it was complete, the dependency issue was resolved.
I had this problem with the Community version of IntelliJ Community edition. I was able to solve the problem using this process:
Click "Help" menu
Click "Find Action" and type "Maven Settings."
Click "Maven Settings."
Click the arrow next to "Maven" on the left hand side, to see the submenu
Click "Importing"
Check "Import Maven Projects automatically" and click "OK."
This should pull in all of the Maven dependencies from the pom.xml file, without you needing to manually add the libraries.
I hope this helps.
I have encountered a problem like this.
I resolved it as follows:
Project Structure >> Modules >> your module has problem >> Dependencies
then double click the jar that have problem, go to "Configure Project Library",
and then click "+", i.e. I add dependency jar manually, otherwise, the dependency jar is red (i.e failed status) or have none.
It's not really an answer, but I moved some stuff around the POM's and it seems to be working. I've got a bad internet connection, and I found that it kept stalling trying to download some of the jar files, and Intellij didn't seem to time out when it did stall, I ended up having to restart it each time it stalled to get the JAR's to download.
But it's working okay now by just editing the pom files, which is more convenient for me than libraries.
In my case I was having this exact problem because I was trying to import a local jar-with-dependencies without classifier. To solve this I just needed to add <classifier>jar-with-dependencies</classifier> to the maven dependency, e.g.:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.my.group</groupId>
<artifactId>myartifact</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<classifier>jar-with-dependencies</classifier>
</dependency>
Hope this helps someone.
There can be different root causes of this issue. For me problem was that I had a maven settings file with a different name. Problem resolved after I went to intellij maven settings and updated the maven settings file path and then after maven refreshed my projects.
I solved the probelm by deleting it in module dependencies, and then importing it again.

I have a multi-level Maven project that builds fine on the command-line using mvn clean install and builds in IntelliJ IDEA (2019.3) by manually running the parent project's clean and install phase. The Problems view shows nothing wrong. When I open files that have certain external libraries, they show as being unable to be resolved:
I'm usually able to browse external libraries' contents in the project browser. I've noticed that these external libraries IntelliJ can't find are listed but not browsable.
Other people working on our project with the same code base and same IntelliJ version don't seem to have this problem. I've tried:
"Reimport all Maven projects"
File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart
Completely deleting my ~/.m2/repository
Completely deleting my $PROJECT_ROOT/.idea directory and reimporting
Recloning and reimporting the project from scratch
None of the above seem to work.
The root case for this problem was not identified and is still under investigation, but what can help is removing the IDE settings and starting with the defaults.
Dear Stackoverflow Community, I have the following problem with my spring boot starter application. I imported the starter project as a new maven project into IntelliJ. But IntelliJ does not find the dependencies I specified in the pom.
Image of my Application Class:
If I try to run the project I get the following error message.
Image of the Error Message:
I already tried everything from re-installing IntelliJ to re-importing the project or redownloading the dependencies. I simply dont know why IntelliJ doesn´t find the dependencies.
My pom.xml looks as following
Image of my pom.xml:
The first time I tried to edit the pom.xml it said to me "this file does not belong to the project". Maybe this might be one reason.
Running the whole thing with 'mvn install' or 'mvn clean verify' works.
Try this and then build: mvn -U idea:idea
Had the same problem. I have tried everything: invalidating cache, deleting the whole .m2 folder, changing settings, reloding the project, nothing helped.
The solution for me was to delete the .iml files which are IntelliJ module files used for keeping module configuration. After reopening the project it worked.
The idea was not mine, I found the hint here: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/203365204--package-does-not-exist-error-despite-autocomplete-being-aware-of-them
Sometimes your workspace could get corrupted.
In my case, I tried to Reload the project and it worked
in my case changed JDK version in Maven importer from JDK 11 to my local JDK version 1.8
Here is how my IntelliJ settings for spring boot application looks like
Click open -> browse your workspace -> and select POM.xml file
Check this in your intelliJ settings
Do this too [Settings --> Maven --> Importing]
I just had the same issue. My solution was to remove all dependencies from the pom, reload via maven -> Reload All Maven Projects. Run mvn compile. Add dependencies back to the pom, maven -> Reload All Maven Projects. Run mvn compile.
Now the Intellij build works.
You need to change Maven's JDK for importing option from Project JDK to the Path variable for Java on your machine.
You can get to this by going to Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Maven -> Importing. Scroll down to the bottom and look for JDK for importing:. Select from the list the path variable for JAVA.
For Windows users, JAVA_HOME should be an option in the drop-down list.
Follow these steps, your problem should be solved. You just need to add Spring-framework-starter-web and Spring-framework-starter-tester from your pom.xml file.

In my case, adding the project as maven project helped .
I'm trying to make an old Netbeans project run.
However, certain references are broken:
Normally, one would install mongoldb-java-driver by augmenting the pom-file accordingly, see: https://mongodb.github.io/mongo-java-driver/
However, this Netbeans project does not have a pom file (I don't know why).
How can I add the missing files and folders to the project without a pom-file?
You can try downloading the Netbeans 8.2 from Oracle directly as it will contain by default the maven plugin and in this case might solve your problem.
so I have started using maven (with eclipse, and a local implementation of Sonatype) not that long ago, after getting through the initial pain I though everything was working.... apparently not !
I have my main project POM and all my child POM (I am using a 'flat' hierarchy, so all the sub projects are in the same folder as the parent POM). This seems to be working OK.
The sub project where all started and 'released' and tested before I started using Maven. I went to maven to solve my 'dependencies' problems... or rather make them more complicated in this instance.
Most of the 'Maven' stuff seems to work fine, but I can't resolve the dependencies of my 'sub projects' that have been released into my local ms/repository
Each day I start up eclipse and have the same problems, I have 'unable to resolve imports' on all my personal libraries, and all those that I use for them (such as Log4j, DDlUtils etc).
I thought the whole point of maven was that I would be able to put in an import declaration for a library, add the 'groupID' and other stuff to the child POM (or parent POM). And then have all the jars downloaded automagically when I run
mvn install
against the parent.
However each day I find I have to re-insert the build path to the libraries (internal and external) via the eclipse workspace and point them to the location of the libraries that I have downloaded as maven can't seem to find them anywhere.
Specifically with running Junit test, I can run them from the workspace (using run as junit) and they all pass fine. But if I try to run them with
mvn test
I get an message saying
java.lang;NoClassDefFoundError: org/junit/Assert
(and this is the same from within eclipse running the mvn test or from CLI)
with an error message in the output of
failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven.surfire-plugin:2.10:test
the POM and jar are in my M2_REPO, and I can find it when I search in sonatype, why can't maven find something that is part of its own system, exists in its repo.
but this obviously works just fine when I run via eclipse and point it to an independently downloaded junit library.
I don't know what extra info you may require, and I'm obviously missing something in either the m2e plugin, my maven install or in sonatype.
please help I'm begining to loose my hair!
and may soon be forced to return to an ant/ivy solution (but don't want to have to learn 'yet another tool' (in this case ivy).
Thanks in advance
David.
ps. i'm on a windows XP platform
edit...
can I get maven to build and release the jar and pom even though it thinks it is failing the tests (which is itn't as I'm doing them manually, and they pass just fine).
If I look in the 'effective POM' tab of my parent POM, the plugin stated above is not in there. I guess this means it is a maven config setting, but where do I add it, and why isn't it automatic when I run my first set of maven tests?
edit 2....
I just found this on the apache plugin comments page (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/plugin-info.html), so I ran the code on the CLI, mvn surefire:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=test lots of stuff was downloaded, and now the tests run, but they fail within maven ? (remember they pass when run from eclipse using 'run as junit test)... so this is nearly a solution...
It sounds like you need make eclipse aware that the projects in question are Maven projects. You may have POMs set up for your projects, but for the m2e plugin to work you need to have either created the project as a Maven project ('New' -> 'Project...' -> 'Maven' -> 'Maven Project...'), or converted it into a Maven project by right clicking it then selecting 'Configure' -> 'Convert to Maven Project'. You will know that a project has been recognised as a Maven project because there will be a little blue 'M' in the top left of its icon, as shown in the screenshot below:
The main thing to note in the above picture is the 'Maven Dependencies' library. This is set up automatically by the m2e plugin. Whenever you add a dependency to a POM then the project's build path will be configured automatically, although sometimes you may need to force it to do so by right clicking the project and selecting 'Maven' -> 'Update Maven Configuration'. The important thing is that if everything is working then you should never have to update the build path yourself. Moveover, if you do update it yourself then any changes you make will likely get overwritten the next time you run the 'Update Maven Configuration' command.
Also worth noting from the picture is that the two dependencies 'mavenProjectTest' and 'primes' have folder icons next to them. This means that they have been picked up as workspace projects. For this to work the project must have 'workspace resolution' enabled, and the projects to be picked up need to be configured as m2e Maven projects as well.
You mention downloading external libraries. You shouldn't need to download any libraries yourself - by adding the right dependency declaration for an external library then Maven will download it from your configured remote repository (the first time anyway - afterwards it will then be able to get it from your local repository). By default, this is the Maven Central repository. To add an external library to your project just follow that link, enter the library in the search box, click on the version link for the version you require, then you will be taken to a page where there will be the dependency XML declaration that you can just copy and paste into your POM.
One more thing that may help is that you should make sure that your source folders follow the Maven default directory structure. That is, your test packages should be contained in a source folder called 'src/test/java', and the main project packages should go in 'src/main/java'. Otherwise Maven will not know where to find your source code. It is possible to configure a POM to tell Maven to expect your source code to be in different source folders, but it is highly recommended that you follow the standard Maven directory structure.
Since you have child modules, my suggestion would be to simplify things by creating a new Maven project from scratch that you can have a play around with. Once you are comfortable with that then try getting m2e to work for your multi-module project.
I remember your pain when first getting to grips with Maven, but it's great once you understand what it's doing and everything is working. I highly recommend reading through the free online book Maven: The Complete Reference - it helped me out a lot when I was getting started with Maven.
I have experienced the same messages and have found a working solution, thanks to one of my organization's Maven experts.
Here was my pom.xml that reproduces your error:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.junit4</groupId>
<artifactId>org.junit4</artifactId>
<version>4.3.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
With it, I would get package org.junit does not exist messages and NoClassDefFoundError: org/junit/Assert. Similar to your experience, it worked great from Eclipse, green bars and all.
Here is the pom.xml that works:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.8.1</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
I copied this from the example at the top of this Using JUnit page.
I'm trying to use this Sonatype Eclipse plugin for the first time to handle an existing (huge) software that I can build with maven form the command line.
I have configured the plugin to use my maven 2.2.1 installation instead of the built-in Maven 3.
In Eclipse I have 25 projects (loaded through the root pom.xml) and 4 of them have compilation errors; the maven console contains a lot of lines like this one:
Missing artifact commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.0.4:compile
I have all the jars in my repository and the M2_REPO classpath variable correctly defined. Why the plugin doesn't see all the jars?
The .classpath file of those projects simply references "MAVEN2_CLASSPATH_CONTAINER", there isn't a list of the jars.
The pom.xml in Eclipse shows an error on the first line for the missing jars but I can build from the command line!
Any idea? I need help! I will try to move to NetBeans if I don't solve this problem.
Thank you.
You may need to to tell Eclipse to force update:
Project -> Maven -> Update Maven Project
and then make sure you have selected:
Force Updates of Snapshots/Releases
this happens when mvn install copies some jar files into Maven repository and Eclipse had checked this repo BEFORE this jar has been copied there.
If Dependency management is enabled when the above problems occur in Eclipse you can Project > Maven > Disable Dependency Management and then \Project > Maven > Enable Dependency Management. This normally remove any dependency errors in the pom.xml.
Also do as #Nishant indicated in his answer above after the above steps to complete the projects dependencies.
right click on your project > Maven > Update Dependencies
then
right click on your project > Maven > Update Project configuration
Assuming you M2Eclipse plugin is installed correctly this should solve the issue. Also, check if there is an option right click project > Maven > Enable dependency Management select that.
Using Eclipse Kepler, the removing and re-adding of the maven nature fixed this same issue I was having. What this process actually did was modify the .settings/org.eclipse.m2e.core.prefs file, changing the line
resolveWorkspaceProjects=false
to
resolveWorkspaceProjects=true
So you could probably make this change manually if you had to.
Adding my 2c for future Googlers:
Whenever this problem shows up, I delete the corresponding folder from the m2 repository (on a mac it's on ~/.m2/repository) and build again from eclipse with clean install.
Works every single time.
Close eclipse IDE and open it again, this issue should be fixed.
Just to add yet another possible resolution, if you have a multi-project build with interdependencies, if you have a repository defined in a child project pom to resolve a specific dependency that only that project depends on and it is relying on a partent project for it's other resolutions it fails to see those dependencies in the child project (even though it works from the command line).
Move the repo definition to the parent pom.
The lack of jars in the build path suggests you haven't enabled Maven dependencies. Right-click on the project, select Maven, select "Enable Maven Dependency Management". This allows M2Eclipse to reference your POM.
I finally found a workaround. It is surely a bug in m2eclipse, however the problem disappeared when I added quartz-1.6.0.pom next to quartz-1.6.0.jar in .m2\repository\opensymphony\quartz\1.6.0\
The pom is not present at http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/opensymphony/quartz/1.6.0/ but you can extract it from quartz-1.6.0-bundle.jar linket at http://jira.opensymphony.com/browse/QUARTZ-482
It's a strange solution but it worked on the PCs of my collegues too.
None of the other suggestions worked, but the following steps worked for me (SpringSource Tool Suite 2.6.1):
Back up the contents of the local Maven repository
Delete the repository
Project > Maven > Update Dependencies
Replace anything not available in a public repository from the backup
If disabling and enabling project dependency management doesn't help (usualy it helps) you can modify .classpath file in your project and add a line:
<classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.m2e.MAVEN2_CLASSPATH_CONTAINER"/>
After eclipse restart dependencies should be added.
I had this same problem happened to me. On the CLI clean install, then on eclipse delete the dependency, paste it again and that did the trick.
Remove all the artifacts except the jar in maven local repository
Late answer: In my case I had multiple profiles in settings.xml. Building worked since the correct profile was selected in the Maven Build run config, but the editors showed errors because the profile was not selected via Project -> Maven -> Select Maven Profiles ...
