SpringBoot cannot be found IntelliJ

Question

I'm struggling to make my setup to work Intellij + SpringBoot. I downloaded a regular pom.xml from spring initializr. When i build/run the project it does not find spring boot dependencies, but running mvnw spring-boot:run works fine. So i assume it might be something with IntelliJ, but simply can't figure it out. NOTE: This is a new installation of everything. And using

openjdk version "1.8.0_252" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 1.8.0_252-b09) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 25.252-b09, mixed mode)

My Maven Settings are default

Am I escaping something ? BR

Try to build on plain command line first...and lets see if there are errors or not... — khmarbaise
can you post the log output during the build...best would be the full output.. — khmarbaise
the log output is the same as above on my original post Errors — Noize
If command line Maven build also fails - this means the Maven is unable to download these libraries form the Maven repository. You have the parent section declared in pom.xml. Then you need to make sure this parent Maven project must exist in your local repository. Check your network configuration: if you have proxy, make sure it is configured in Maven. Also verify you have — Andrey

Try installing lombok in intellij IDEA:

Go to File > Settings > Plugins.
Click on Browse repositories...
Search for Lombok Plugin.
Click on Install plugin.
Restart IntelliJ IDEA.

If that still doesn't work, try: File->Invalidate cache and restart and then build your project. Hope this helps.
