Getting java error: compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 53.0)

Question

Here I'm running JDK-8 with Maven 3.2.5, my code build is getting success

After launching the app I'm getting the following error:

Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/daimler/duke/common/faults/CommonServiceFacadeFault has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 53.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) ~[na:1.8.0_162]

I have also explored about it, some of the blogs are showing that application is getting compiled in java 9 and its try to run in java 8

My pom.xml file is:

Any one have idea about this?

Note: I can not go with the java 9 here because of application dependencies.

then you'll need to recompile the code with a compiler that is compliant with your running environment — Stultuske, Mar 15 '19 at 09:54
can you please try to add `8` in pom into your `` tag and recompile it again ? — Rmahajan, Mar 15 '19 at 13:28

Once you have fixed the JDK version issue, you need to run clean task for recompiling all classes:

mvn clean package

If you don't add clean some classes don't get compiled and error persists.
