How to add a spring-boot jar as a dependency in a new spring-boot project without changing the original pom

In order to add azure app insights in an old spring-boot jar(which already has micrometer), I've created a new spring-boot project and added it as a dependency. However, after a successful Maven build, while executing it as spring-boot app, I'm getting Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [org/springframework/web/servlet/config/annotation/WebMvcConfigurerAdapter.class] exception. Here are my two POM files,

It turns out that the azure app-insights needs spring-boot-starter-web to work properly. But since that jar is already present in the parent of the existing jar, I can not add it to my current POM file. This might mean I might not be importing the old jar in my new POM correctly.
How do I add the existing spring-boot jar as a dependency in my new spring-boot's POM file, without making any modifications in the existing jar or its POM?

Can you please check the packing of both the projects, if the child project has different packing then parent project, then you need to add component scan at your child main class from where you are running your project.
For example,
Parent project has package name
com.my.app
And
child project had package name
com.my.app.appinsights
then you need to add component scan in main class
#ComponentScan("com.my.app")
Spring boot by default scan beans from sub-packages of the main class. To override the component scan you need to add this annotation so that it will scan beans from given package also.

Maven compilation failure but no java error

I'm developing an editor plug-in in Eclipse Neon. The project is separated into a parent project, managing it's dependencies and a child project, which contains the actual source code. After migrating my plug-in from Eclipse Mars to Neon, I changed the method IEditorDescriptor editorDescriptor = IDE.getEditorDescriptor(storage.getName(), true); to IEditorDescriptor editorDescriptor = IDE.getEditorDescriptor(storage.getName(), true, true);, because the first one is deprecated now. If I try to rebuild the project with Maven, it gives me a compilation failure:

The specific line in the code is not marked as wrong by Eclipse and the execution of the code also works well, so where is the problem?

Indeed, after adding the Eclipse Neon repository to the pom.xml with this:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>eclipse-neon</id>
<url>http://download.eclipse.org/releases/neon</url>
<layout>p2</layout>
</repository>
</repositories>
, the Maven build works and does not mark the editorDescriptor = IDE.getEditorDescriptor(storage.getName(), true, true); as an error -> Problem solved

do a
mvn clean
and try to build once more

How to fix this issue?

Thx, I found the answer:
The comment at the bottom of this post suggests that you need to have filled in the Real Name field in your github profile to avoid this error.

Maven-plugin-plugin default-descriptor error message after upgrade to 3.1.1

I am upgrading my system's Maven runtime from 3.0.5 to 3.1.1 and trying to build my project using mvn clean install like I normally would. Using the older Maven runtime, the build would always succeed. However, I am now always getting this error message during the build:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-plugin-plugin:3.2:descriptor (default-descriptor) on project XYZ: Execution default-descriptor of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-plugin-plugin:3.2:descriptor failed: 48188 -> [Help 1]
I thought that perhaps it was due to my dependencies and plugins being outdated, so I ran mvn versions:use-latest-versions to update my pom.xml versions. That still did not fix this issue. Any ideas?
UPDATE
By popular demand, here is what my pom.xml file looks like. Note that all dependency and plugin versions were updated by mvn versions:use-latest-versions except for Sitebricks and qdox, due to breaking changes that I didn't want to integrate into my project.

I had exactly the same problem and tried probably every hint provided in the possible duplicate Basic maven plugin project not working, Mojo plugin descriptors not generating, but nothing worked. Eventually in turned out that an old version 2.6.1 of the library com.ibm.icu:icu4j that was used by some other 3rd party module was responsible. I got rid of the icu4j dependency entirely and maven-plugin-plugin run with out problems thereafter.
