Spring Framework boot versions confusing. bootRun not working with latest versions. Could you help?

I went to the page MVPREPOSITORY https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework/spring-webmvc?repo=springio-plugins-release looking for the latest version and found versionns 5, but none of them worked with the fail of bootRun here. What should I do?

Try this for your build.gradle

plugins { id 'java' id 'idea' id 'eclipse' id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.1.7.RELEASE' }

group 'com.teamtreehouse' version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories { mavenCentral() }

dependencies { compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:2.1.7.RELEASE' }

Hi Zack, now it's working perfectly fine. Where did you get that version from? I looked for the latest versions in the "official" we b page and it showed something like 5. something.

Hi Murilo, glad to hear it works fine. I just googled spring-boot-starter-web and got https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot-starter-web
