java spring-boot intellij-idea inaccessibleobjectexception
How to run that example project in intellij?

I am trying to fire up a sample project from the book "Hands-On RESTful API Design Patterns and Best Practices" on a freshly downloaded intellij IDEA community edition environment. I have installed the latest version of the JDK and maven. I download the project from the git repository using the "New project from version control..." option. Link to the project: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-On-RESTful-API-Design-Patterns-and-Best-Practices
After downloading, I cannot fire up the program. The console throws a series of errors as below:

Process finished with exit code 1
I have tried changing the dependencies in the pom, but so far without success. Could someone please help me with firing up this project? I would be very grateful.
I try to find out solution on StackOverflow
Solution
First of all, I need to remind you that the Spring Boot version in your linked Git repository is quite outdated. The repository contains Spring Boot 1.x, while the popular versions now are 2.x or 3.x. (So, you might want to consider if your learning materials are a bit out-of-date.)
If you need to run https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Hands-On-RESTful-API-Design-Patterns-and-Best-Practices/tree/master/Chapter03/investor-services, then you should be using Java 8, not Java 22.
First, you'll need to download Java 8, and then switch the Java version that the project runs on in IDEA. To do this: IDEA-> File -> Project Structure -> Project -> SDK.
