Deploy Eclipse Spring Maven project with class folder dependency

I have an Eclipse Java project which has a class folder as dependency. This means that in order to run the app correctly I need to add that folder in the Java Build Path of the project.
In other words:
"Properties"->"Java Build Path"->"Libraries" -> "Add Class Folder"->folder with dependencies.
The Java project runs fine with this configuration either in Eclipse and in the exported runnable JAR file.
I rewrote the same project with Java Spring with the same configuration as above (the class folder dependency) and it still works fine inside the Eclipse IDE.
But, when I try to deploy the app with the command "mvn package", I got the following error:
[ERROR] COMPILATION ERROR :

This is exactly the dependency located inside the aforementioned folder and this means that in some way, the mvn package command is unable to read this folder, but Eclipse can without problems.
Maybe due to a POM misconfiguration?
In this case, here my POM file build section:
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<fork>true</fork>
<mainClass>${start-class}</mainClass>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>repackage</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
I also tried the following:
mvn clean package spring-boot:repackage
mvn install
but I got the same error message.
So, how to tell MVN to also "consider" that folder to build the project?

mvn clean install giving errors on new local machine

This is quite unexpected, I recently switched to a new machine and while setting up my dev environment, one of my services has been giving this error on running mvn clean install

My first guess would be that I have a dependency missing in my project(not sure which one), although it does BUILD SUCCESS on existing machines including the Jenkins instance.
None of the other services I run have an issue like this.
I've verified that the jars mentioned are not corrupt. Tried deleting the whole .m2 directory and starting again as well.
Are there any other possibilities I might be missing here?
Edit: Adding the <plugins> section of my pom.xml
I've been recommended using a newer plugin, but this may add help narrow down the issue further:
<plugins>
<!-- Docker Build Plugin START -->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.7</version>
<dependencies>
<dependency>

</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
I've removed the <execution> part from these to save some scrolling.

You could use the much newer Wagon Maven Plugin:
Use this plugin to view and transfer resources between repositories using Maven Wagon.
with its copy goal:
Copy artifacts from one Wagon repository to another Wagon repository.
instead of the old copy-rename-maven-plugin.
Don't get confused by Wagon repository. There are simply source/target URLs and fromDir/toDir directories. Wagon supports the file: protocol.
Re: one of your comments to your question: The maven-resources-plugin:2.7 has in its POM:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
<version>3.0.15</version>
</dependency>
and no copy-rename-maven-plugin, of course.

Plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.0' not found

I am having problems with the maven-compiler-plugin version.
It's underlined in red color, when I hover over the <version>3.8.0</version> field, a pop-up with below error appears:

Here down my plugin declaration section:

For my part, try adding a new dependency:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.9.0</version>
</dependency>
And that's it, check the version and try it.

Cannot specify the following JVM options in the POM file

I am working on a JavaFX project using Maven which requires the JavaFX on screen keyboard enabled. I am trying to achieve this by using the following JVM options.
-Dcom.sun.javafx.isEmbedded=true -Dcom.sun.javafx.virtualKeyboard=javafx
The corresponding POM sections are as fololows.
<!-- Property Definitions -->
<properties>
<jvm.options>-Dcom.sun.javafx.isEmbedded=true -Dcom.sun.javafx.virtualKeyboard=javafx</jvm.options>
</properties>
<!-- Compiler Plugin -->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.7.0</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.8</source>
<target>1.8</target>
<compilerArgs>
<compilerArg>${jvm.options}</compilerArg>
</compilerArgs>
</configuration>
</plugin>
The source results in a maven build failure with the following error.

The flags work with the eclipse build tool (Run as -> Java Application). What have I been doing wrong? Is there any documentation on how to to set those two flags using Maven? Any help is much appreciated.
