How to fix it?
Your issue is most likely the <scope> of the dependency. When inside of the IDE, all scopes are added to the build path of the project. However, when running mvn only the appropriate scopes are added to the classpath for the javac command. For example, if you had a class in /src/main/java that imported a class from one of your dependencies scoped to <scope>test</scope>, the IDE would be able to build the project, but mvn would fail in the manner you are experiencing.
I encountered a similar error when trying to download and compile the aws kinesis consumer library (kcl)

It turns out that while I had updated my version of Java from 1.6 to 1.7, I had not updated Javac from 1.6 to 1.7.
To do so I used the following command on ubuntu
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
And then choose the desired version at the prompt.
There are 2 choices for the alternative javac (providing /usr/bin/javac).

I solved this problem by adding a new file system.properties and the content added to the file is java.runtime.version=11 (For me I am using JDK 11).
java.runtime.version=11
I would try focusing on why maven complains about invalid release 11 (Fatal error compiling: invalid target release: 11).
As seen in your pom.xml config you clearly intend to use version 15, so I would suggest to investigate why there is a problem with version 11.
Check $JAVA_HOME environment variable, system.properties file, etc.
Also try debug route suggested in official docs or a Q&A on a similar topic.
You must use the specific version of Java supported by Heroku. The following versions supported are:
Java 7 - 1.7.0_292
Java 8 - 1.8.0_282
Java 11 - 11.0.10
Java 13 - 13.0.6
Java 15 - 15.0.2
Set a java.runtime.version property of the system.properties file, create a system.properties file if one does not already exist.
java.runtime.version = SUPPORTED_VERSION

This is what I have experienced today.
I have been using jdk 1.8, and then have to install jdk 1.11.
But, after running mvnw through my shell script file dep.sh, it failed to build jar.
#!/bin/bash
MVN=$(pwd)/mvnw
echo "[1/2] Building app.jar ..."
$MVN clean package -Dmaven.test.skip=true
dep.sh calls mvnw script file with goal clan package

I am currently doing a software engineering module where we learn about CI and TDD. As an assignment we must create a Java project using maven, JUnit, and Shippable. My files include three java classes (Student, Course, and Module classes) and a simple test for each that tests getters and setters.
I am using:
Apache NetBeans 12.0

Openjdk11

I am really unfamiliar with all these technologies and I have already tried several suggestions from answers to similar questions but to no vail.
Would anyone be able to help with this issue? Much appreciated.
I am in the process of upgrading maven and some maven dependencies that used to work but im getting a RuntimeException after upgrading.
I have removed the logic from my maven plugin, so its pure apache maven code and none of my own:
import org.apache.maven.lifecycle.mapping.LifecyclePhase;
import org.apache.maven.plugin.AbstractMojo;
import org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException;
import org.apache.maven.plugins.annotations.Mojo;

I ran into the same problem with the com.jayway.maven plugin when trying to build Android Bootstrap project.
I was able to fix this by going into pom.xml properties section and adding my ANDROID sdk path.
<properties>
<abs.version>4.3.1</abs.version>
<dagger.version>1.0.1</dagger.version>
<otto.version>1.3.4</otto.version>
<gson.version>2.2.4</gson.version>
<menudrawer.version>3.0.2</menudrawer.version>
<android.sdk.path>C:\Android\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk</android.sdk.path>
</properties>
I originally had it pointing to my JAVA SDK which was causing it to fail -- you need to point this to your ANDROID sdk.
This path is not set: ANDROID_HOME and your SDK may be too low a version. And then after setting.xml set full path android sdk.
I've been developing in Java using maven for a few days now. Today I edited my pom.xml based on these instructions. Suddenly running mvn compile is giving me errors as if I was compiling with an older version of java. Stuff like:
error: generics are not supported in -source 1.3
Now I've paired my pom.xml back to its original content, and I'm still getting this error. I've done a mvn clean and deleted everything under target, and am still having this problem.
Here's a snippet of maven running the compilation phase:

This had been working fine up until today. I'm not sure what setting I might have changed or how I could have munged up my project. I even double checked that the correct versions of java are installed:
doug#doug-VirtualBox:~/lucid/bah-bio-demo/bahToBeh$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_10"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_10-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)
doug#doug-VirtualBox:~/lucid/bah-bio-demo/bahToBeh$ javac -version
javac 1.7.0_10
Here is JAVA_HOME
doug#doug-VirtualBox:~/lucid/bah-bio-demo/bahToBeh$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle
Maven IS using the pom.xml I think it is, if I run mvn -X compile I get:
DEBUG] (f) project = MavenProject: com.lucid:bahToBeh:1.0-SNAPSHOT # /home/doug/lucid/bah-bio-demo/bahToBeh/pom.xml
I've also deleted my maven repo rm -rf ~/.m2 and saw maven redownload everything same problem.
EDIT -- It suddenly works mysteriously
I have no idea what happened, but suddenly now its working. I thought that one thing I changed was I commented out a test. I went and uncommented out the test and then ran mvn compile and this time it compiled. Some state somewhere was out-of-sync and now things magically work?
I hate not knowing why my tools suddenly go wonky, so this is not an answer to the question, merely more information.
EDIT -- and it also just suddenly STOPPED working again
Looks like fully specifying the version to compile works though, so dingding thats the winner.
Set the source and target java versions explicitly. http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/set-compiler-source-and-target.html
<project>
[...]
<build>
[...]
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.7</source>
<target>1.7</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
[...]
</build>
[...]
</project>
As a workaround you can try this (given that it is very specific to an environment, this could help).
You can enforce the version of compilation using the plugin.
Maven compilation plugin.
Good luck!
