Cannot resolve org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-eureka-server:unknown

Question

I'm learning spring-cloud and I'm having some problems writing the pom file. I get an error "Cannot resolve org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-eureka-server:unknown".

I know if I add the version tag I can solve this problem, but I think it should automatically get the appropriate version number instead of making me write the version number.

Use this instead of

Current: What you are using.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-eureka-server</artifactId>
</dependency>

Change to netflix: What you should use.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-netflix-eureka-server</artifactId>
</dependency>

This dependencies has been renamed and netflix is included in the name.

From Edgaware release the naming convention has changed. Refer the release notes for more information.

https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-cloud/wiki/Spring-Cloud-Edgware-Release-Notes

and this naming convention is followed for further releases.
