Unable to parse configuration of MapStruct plugin

Question

I was recently adding a MapStruct as a dependency to my project but I have run into issue with adding MapStruct as a dependency into project .pom file and congiguring it.

Here is my .pom file:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

                    </compilerArgs>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

</project>

After I hit clean and compile I get error message:

Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.1:compile (default-compile) on project ticket-manager: Unable to parse configuration of mojo org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.1:compile for parameter artefactId: Cannot find 'artefactId' in class org.apache.maven.plugin.compiler.DependencyCoordinate

I don't quite understand what is the problem here but I can guess that the is not processed or is misplaced, i don't know. I have used MapStruct in my previous projects but this is the first time I have encountered this problem

Answer 1

This has nothing to do with MapStruct.

You have a typo in your configuration.

Instead of artifactId you have artefactId. Notice the e after the art.
