Generate file . jar in Eclipse with Maven, application connects to Mysql

Question

I am using Eclipse and have an application made using Maven that connects to the Mysql database.

I can generate the file .jar, but when I run, it simply hangs on the login screen, it doesn’t seem to connect in the database.

To generate the file .jar I right click on my project > Run As > Maven Install.

My file pom.xml is as follows:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

While executing by cmd, gave the following error message:

Answer 1

Apparently your jar does not contain the dependencies needed to run the application.

Try to replace your plugin tag with this one below, it will cause Maven to manage your application’s jar and a jar with your application and all the dependencies (name_your application-jar-with-dependencies.jar) needed to be executed via command "java -jar name_your_application-jar-with-dependencies.jar"):
