ERROR! This JHipster subgenerator is not intented for standalone use

I'm trying to scaffold monolith application with the help of jHipster. I get this error right after selecting application name. Log:

Welcome to JHipster v5.6.1

Error jhipster

ERROR! This JHipster subgenerator is not intented for standalone use.
Solution

  • It seems like you call jhipster generator using yeoman command: yo jhipster. This syntax is deprecated. Please use the JHipster CLI:

    jhipster

    In general, run jhipster <command> instead of yo jhipster:<command>.
