Can't update Spring boot to version 2.7.0, maven can't find it

As topic describes, I can't update Spring boot from version 2.6.6 to 2.7.0. It will not find 2.7.0 and I get stuck with a broken pom.xml and that breaks the project as well.
I have also tried with 2.7.3 without success. Seems like I just can't find any of the 2.7.x versions of spring.
Any advise?
Project 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-parent:2.7.0' not found
Dependency 'com.h2database:h2:' not found
Plugin 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-maven-plugin:' not found
Here's the pom.xml as requested:

Is there any issue with the pom.xml?

I had a coworker update to 2.7.0 without any issue and after I deleted my m2 folder and pulled changes, I could rebuild! I will keep in mind to check versions and add them.
As #David mvn -U clean install, I checked it out:
-U,--update-snapshots
Forces a check for updated releases and snapshots on remote repositories
Probably will try this next time since my coworker had already updated before I read the comment. Thanks!

there is a way to detect errors on tomcat?

Hello everyone I have a java application (spring-boot) and I deployed it on tomcat9. The app appears on the tomcat manager and the first page of this app to connect appears correctly. But when I try to connect, the 404 error is declantiating.
I checked the Tomcat logs files, but no exceptions are thrown.

Azure spring boot deployment - container problem

I have a problem with my spring boot deployment on azure. I followed the steps on
microsoft docs and i was able to start my webservice locally.
I also deployed the example of microsoft and used my mysql database which is also hosted on azure and had no problems.
I also set the application setting WEBSITES_CONTAINER_START_TIME_LIMIT on maximum.

After deployment on azure i got the following logs:

Which isn't really helpfully.
Maybe someone has an idea to help me
Thanks.

I used your pom.xml and set WEBSITES_CONTAINER_START_TIME_LIMIT to 1800, the log stream didn't show "Container XXX for XXX initialized successfully" and the site showed unavailable service.
Then I tried the pom.xml Microsoft recommending and it worked fine.So maybe you could try my settings. Here is my pom.xml:

Maven clean install spring boot module runs webapp

When I run mvn clean install for my Maven module which is a spring boot application it kinda starts the spring boot web app withing the build process (and fails because of several errors)
This is my pom for that module:
