Why does Selenium work for me in IntelliJ but fail when I run my jar in the command line?

I set up Selenium version 4.7.1 in my project in IntelliJ using maven. In order to get past the error reported here, I added an explicit dependency for guava version 31.1 (which is what is included in the lib folder of the downloadable package on the Selenium website for that version) and I added an exclusion on the selenium dependency for guava.
Now the application works fine when I run it in IntelliJ, but I'm getting this error when I run the jar in my terminal:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver
...
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver
at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.BuiltinClassLoader.loadClass(BuiltinClassLoader.java:641)
at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoaders.java:188)
at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:520)
Other similar questions I've found, like this one, all focus on the guava issue, but it seems like at this point my problem must have something to do with my build configuration in IntelliJ and the jar that is getting created.
I did find some discussions that seemed more pertinent to my issue, but they were geared towards people manually adding the jars, and the advice given was usually to switch to use maven or gradle, but I'm already using maven. I have gone to Project Settings > Libraries and removed any external jars so that all dependencies should be getting pulled in by Maven.
Another discussion I found suggested using the maven-shaded-plugin, which I added and did mvn clean install, but still no luck.
How can I make sure the jar created by IntelliJ runs exactly the same as it runs in IntelliJ? Any help is appreciated.
Here is my current pom.xml, which includes a suggestion from the current answer, but at this point I'm still experiencing the same issue:

Here is a screenshot of my project structure after the updates to my pom. Currently the stock-analysis-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar that is built is much to small, so I'm trying to figure out if something is configured wrong with the maven-jar-plugin.

Probably you aren't building dependencies correctly. U need both:
<plugin>

<version>2.6</version>

It's hard to help if you don't post your pom.xml though

SAM build fails because Maven install fails with "The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact"

I have an issue where I am trying to get mvn install to work so that my sam build works with local invocation using Docker, but it keeps failing due to the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:2.4:install (default-install) on project my-project: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact -> [Help 1]
There are many different iterations of problems and solutions regarding "The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact" on StackOverflow, but none of them seem to resolve my issue.
For example, I can do a mvn jar:jar install:install and that works correctly, but I can't specify goals like that in the SAM build, so that isn't a proper solution -- I need mvn install to work. I have tried many variations of deleting the .m2 folder, which does nothing. I can also change the version of the maven-install-plugin to no avail. I can specify the file in the maven-install-plugin and if the path is correct, it doesn't see it, but if it is incorrect, it says it doesn't exist.
Nothing seems to solve the issue, so I need to find a real solution.

After much searching and many trial and errors, I finally figured out how to resolve this and figured I would share for those that are suffering through this like I was. There are two methods:
You can remove the following plugin:
<!-- don't build a jar, we'll use the classes dir -->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.2.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-jar</id>
<phase>none</phase>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
While this makes it function correctly, it also produces a jar file, which may not be desirable, especially in the case of a Lambda (unnecessarily increases its size).
(Preferred solution) Add the maven-install-plugin with a skip configuration:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-M1</version>
<configuration>
<skip>true</skip>
</configuration>
</plugin>
This solution both solves the problem and prevents you needing to create a jar file. This allowed my SAM build to work as a result of Maven functioning correctly.

What could be the problem?
Why code works in intellij and don't work after creating jar file?

I see that you refer to a precise MANIFEST file, it would be useful to know what is written inside it because, as I think you know, inside the MANIFEST file there are both startup class and the list of dependencies and their location.
The POM file does not explicitly construct a "jar-with-dependency", therefore I would assume that the package you have built does not contain the necessary dependencies to use it
As a result, you have two choices:
1) create an "all-in-one" package, that contains all the dependencies necessary for its use, via maven plugin, replacing your "maven-jar-plugin" with "maven-assembly-plugin":
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>{full qualified name of main class}</mainClass>
<addDefaultImplementationEntries>true</addDefaultImplementationEntries>
<addDefaultSpecificationEntries>true</addDefaultSpecificationEntries>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
2) referencing the external dependencies via the parameter -Djava.library.path, -cp or similar

When you compile the jar file you would need to package the required dependency with jar file. You can try to explore following configuration. What it does is that it adds required dependency with jar itself and when you try to run the jar it finds all the dependency with jar itself. Here api-all is dependency which I would like to include with jar itself. Which has maven dependency

Alternatively you try to provide classpath to dependent jar in command line itself using java -cp .:<file_1_name>.jar:<file_2_name>.jar <prog_name>

Then I have the 4 sub-modules benchmark, core, algo, tests with their own pom.xml all referencing the parent project correctly (with the correct version number). The actual project is from neo4j which you can find here.
I tried doing a maven clean install and the project builds successfully without any issues. However, when I import the projects to Eclipse, I get many errors (mostly from the parent project) that states either ... cannot be resolved to a type or ... cannot be resolved.
I tried doing a Maven -> Update Project without any success. I'm in the Project Explorer view in Eclipse with all 5 projects at the same level.
I also tried adding a Active Maven Profiles in Eclipse, however, did not resolve the issue. My Embedded Maven version is 3.3.9/1.8.2.20171007-0216

I found the issue. Problem was, my Eclipse workspace was the directory called workspace. However, my maven projects were in a subfolder I created called my_project. When I cloned the repo, I cd into my_project and did git clone.
So, instead of choosing the highest level workspace folder as my Eclipse workspace, I chose the /workspace/my_project as workspace and the issue resolved.

Maven 3.0.5 and IntelliJ 12 building two jar files

I am using Maven 3.0.5 with IntelliJ 12 and my pom file is set to build a jar with dependencies. Now that works great but my question is this. How do I tell the pom file to only build one jar? Right now I am getting one jar with dependencies which is want I am after but I also get another jar without dependencies which I end up just deleting by hand. I check here: http://maven.apache.org/pom.html and it looks like packaging will default to building a jar even if I don't specify it and in my section of the pom I am telling Maven to build another jar file. What can I change in my pom to build only one jar with dependencies?

Apologies for the formatting.

As written in the pom reference page you're linking to:
Aggregation (or Multi-Module)
A project with modules is known as a multimodule, or aggregator project. Modules are projects that this POM lists, and are executed as a group. An pom packaged project may aggregate the build of a set of projects by listing them as modules, which are relative directories to those projects.
In order to have a "pom packaged project" mark your root project as such - notice the pom in packaging:
<groupId>com.xyz.program.test</groupId>
<artifactId>xyz-program-test</artifactId>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
