maven-compiler-plugin not found
Solution 1
In my case, I have changed the tags from plugin to dependency like it is in the Maven Repository.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.8.1</version>
</dependency>
Solution 2
In my case the groupId for the plugin was missing:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.8.0</version>
...
Solution 3
In my case, Spring Boot code works fine without changing anything, however, it gives the same error when I tried to commit in Git.
To solve this, I add the version info as follows and it worked.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${maven-compiler-plugin.version}</version>
...
Solution 4
I've faced this issue with my old project (which was 100% working on my old ItelliJ IDEA) and newly installed ItelliJ IDEA: in the pom.xml I had this:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.2</version>
<configuration>
<source>${java.version}</source>
<target>${java.version}</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
And IDEA throwed an error maven-compiler-plugin not found. I've added
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
and IDEA found the plugin, and after that I was free to remove org.apache.maven.plugins without breaking IDEA

In IntelliJ you can right click on 3.8.1 scroll down to Maven and select "Reimport". This solved the issue for me.

I am learning Selenium and I would like to try add the maven-compiler-plugin to pom.xml and reimport maven settings. So I found this example to do it http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/set-compiler-source-and-target.html and tried to add the code to the pom.xml. But the vrsion from the example 3.8.1 is red like on the screenshot. What it means? It is a copy from example.
Here is the whole pom.xml
