Redis – Maven not picking up the classes from dependency modules

In my spring-boot project there are two microservices, one config-server, and one naming server. It also has two modules which I am adding as a dependency in the microservices.

Below is the pom of the commons-new module which should be a dependency in my microservices.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

        </plugins>

</project>

And I am adding it as a dependency in my microservice.

When I try to build the microservice using the command mvn clean install, it is throwing compiler-error message.

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.1:compile (default-compile) on project ybanq-auth-manager: Compilation failure: Compilation failure:

However, in IntelliJ editor those classes are accessible and Intellij is not showing the compiler error. But when I run the app in IntelliJ, it shows the same errors.

What is the mistake I am making? Since I added the module as dependency their classes should be available, right?

My system maven version is 3.5.4.

    Remove spring boot plugin from submodule (common-new).
    I had similar issue, but with gradle and found this Unresolved Dependency on package in subproject

    Unfortunately, I don’t know what is exact issue in “using” spring boot plugin in submodules/subprojects.

    The Spring Boot plugin package up all dependency jars and pulls them into the jar your module builds. The structure of this jar is specifically for Spring Boot runnable applications and is not compatible with the normal jar structures, so you can’t use a Spring Boot Application jar as maven dependency jar.
