SpringBoot: Unable to find a single main class from the following candidates

Question

I\'ve generated a Spring Boot web application using Spring Initializer, embedded Tomcat, Thymeleaf template engine.Technologies used: Spring Boot 1.4.2.RELEASE, Spring 4.3.4

Answer 1

I was building a spring boot library project, so I don't need a main starter class, so I faced the same issue while building the project with maven, so I removed the maven plugin to compile successfully
