I am trying to do a mvn clean
package to my Maven Springboot Project but I see the following message. What can be the reason? I already searched everything on the internet; it is a common situation but nobody has a definitive solution which can be useful for me.
My maven version is 3.6.3; I tried to do this from command line; my o.s. is Linux Mint Cinnamnon latest; my java is OpendJDK 11.0.5; maven compiler plugin 3.8.0.

Really, is the reason of the problem the absence of one folder or package? Or this second row is simply related to the javaccompilerforce option itself and not with the core of the app? It seems me too strange or banal. And, in add, the exactly same app works perfectly in another computer.
Edit
Thanks to all for your time, I think, the problem is the absence of some components. I tried to add those and now the error message is changed. At this point, I am a little bit in trouble because I see this maven output:
[ERROR] /home/user/Desktop/mycompany/myapp/server/src/main/java/com/mycompany/myapp/representation/rest/RestControllerAdvice.java:[8,38] error: cannot find symbol
[ERROR] symbol: class InvalidPropertyValueException
[ERROR] location: package com.mycompany.myapp.exception
So, I searched the 8 row in that file and I found this one
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ExceptionHandler;
But, the line which is referred to InvalidPropertyValueException is 2 rows before:
import com.mycompany.myapp.exception.InvalidPropertyValueException;
And, the strange thing, in the package com.mycompanny.myapp.exception I didn't found any class or file named InvalidPropertyValueException. But Eclipse accept it and present me in the option list. And this class don't generate any error or red line.
