Why can I not publish Spring Boot Web Service to MS Azure?

My students and I are having problems posting a Java SpringBoot web service to my pay as you go Azure subscription. We are following microsoft’s directions from their learn.microsoft.com site. We keep receiving invalid target release: 17

This is my code https://github.com/leecottrellPTC/Azurepublish.git
This is MS’s code https://github.com/spring-guides/gs-spring-boot

The version of Java in the Azure CLI is Java 11. I have tried rebuilding my project locally to Java versions 8, 11, and 17. Each time, it runs on my local servers. When I republish it to Azure, I make the proper version choices in the wizard. I have tried Linux and Windows OS, and several tiers of pay. Each results in the same error.

The MS Link offers four different ways to publish a web service. I have tried them all with the exception of Docker. I do not have that configured.

I have run the mvn package azure-webapp:deploy -e, receiving a vomit of errors.

I do not know what else to do.

    Downgrading to Spring boot 2.7.10-snapshot worked. I was able to successfully transfer the web service from GitHub to Azure.

    I was able to successfully upgrade the Azure cli to java 17, but it did not allow the service to post.


  2. 0

    Try changing this in your pom.xml:

    <properties>
        <java.version>17</java.version>
</properties>

    To this:

    <properties>
        <java.version>11</java.version>
</properties>

    Spring-Boot 3 does require Java 17, so you’ll need to downgrade to Spring-Boot 2. If that’s not an option, you’ll keep the pom.xml the same and change the Azure cli version to 17.
