Error in pom.xml in new Spring Boot application

I am using Java 21, Eclipse 25 and tried to create a Spring Boot application which is showing red marks in Application.java file and in pom.xml. I downloaded this Spring Boot project from Spring Initializr, i.e. http://start.spring.io. It fails to compile and run.

Error in pom.xml resulting in maven build and run error

Solution

  • There is an issue with your own artifact's name. It must match the REGEX pattern as shown in the error output:

    <groupId>com.rishabh</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-fundamentals</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
