The normal layout for a maven multi module project is   parent  -- pom xml  -- module        -- pom xml   Check that you use this layout   Additionally    the relativePath looks strange  Instead of          lt relativePath gt    lt  relativePath gt    try       instead    lt relativePath gt     lt  relativePath gt    You can also remove relativePath if you use the standard layout  This is what I always do  and on the command line I can build as well the parent  and all modules  or only a single module  The module path may be wrong  In the parent you define the module as    lt module gt junitcategorizer cutdetection lt  module gt    You must specify the name of the folder of the child module  not an artifact identifier  If junitcategorizer cutdetection is not the name of the folder than change it accordingly     Hope that helps    EDIT have a look at the other post  I answered there

You can try with the following way     lt parent gt       lt groupId gt  lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt  lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt  lt  version gt     lt  parent gt    So that the parent jar will be fetching from the repository

Adding the following to pom xml will resolve the issue        lt pluginRepositories gt           lt pluginRepository gt               lt id gt central lt  id gt               lt name gt Central Repository lt  name gt               lt url gt https   repo maven apache org maven2 lt  url gt               lt layout gt default lt  layout gt               lt snapshots gt                   lt enabled gt false lt  enabled gt               lt  snapshots gt               lt releases gt                   lt updatePolicy gt never lt  updatePolicy gt               lt  releases gt           lt  pluginRepository gt      lt  pluginRepositories gt           lt repositories gt           lt repository gt               lt id gt central lt  id gt               lt name gt Central Repository lt  name gt               lt url gt https   repo maven apache org maven2 lt  url gt               lt layout gt default lt  layout gt               lt snapshots gt                   lt enabled gt false lt  enabled gt               lt  snapshots gt           lt  repository gt      lt  repositories gt

So In my case  After trying all the above options  I realized it was VPN  company firewall  once connected and ran cmd  clean install spring-boot run  Issue is resolved  Step 1  check maven is configured correctly or not  Step 2  check settings xml is mapped correctly or not  Step 3  verify if you are behind any firewall then map your repo urls accordingly  Step 4 run clean install spring-boot run step 5  issue is resolved

I m probably a bit late to the party  but I wrote the junitcategorizer for my thesis project at TOPdesk  Earlier versions indeed used a company internal Parent POM  So your problems are caused by the Parent POM not being resolvable  since it is not available to the outside world   You can either    Remove the  lt parent gt  block  but then have to configure the Surefire  Compiler and other plugins yourself  Only applicable to this specific case   Change it to point to our Open Source Parent POM by setting     lt parent gt       lt groupId gt com topdesk lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt open-source-parent lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 1 2 0 lt  version gt   lt  parent gt
