What command are you actually starting? How does your source tree liook like? If you open the jar does it contain the class? — eckes, Sep 21 '16 at 18:29

If you came across the error:Not able to run java main method using maven do this it worked for me: Reason for the error: The reason for this error is the jar file or dependency to run a maven project is not installed correctly.

Solution for the error: Go to the project folder (eg: D:\office\OIA-service-app) in the address bar of computer type command "cmd" and press enter. In the command prompt type command "mvn clean install"[image][1] make sure you have the internet connection.
