I was also getting a similar error here [irynah@irynah-HP-Spectre-x360-Convertible-13-aw0xxx:~$ mvn openmrs-sdk:run[INF - Pastebin.com](https://pastebin.com/APF1fEMs). This started today. Last week I was able to spin the server using the SDK without errors. I tried running `mvn openmrs-sdk:setup-sdk -U` so as to upgrade my SDK but still the server could not start. I also realised that when I run this command `mvn openmrs-sdk:run` the server too k a bit long to start, there’s a bunch of stuff that run before indicating that `OpenMRS is ready for you at http://localhost:8080/openmrs/ ` But I remembered @ibacher in his [post](https://talk.openmrs.org/t/announcing-openmrs-sdk-4-2-0/35153) talking about the upgrades he made to Openmrs-sdk. He also mentioned that if you still want to use the old SDK then run this command `mvn org.openmrs.maven.plugins:openmrs-sdk-maven-plugin:4.1.1:run ` to start the server(ofcourse with modifications of the content in the angle (\<\>) brackets. **Following his advice I have been able to successfully start my server with the old SDK.** cc @smarthech and @sumedha . This could be of great help to you as well. cc @jwnasambu , @dkayiwa --- _[View the full topic](https://talk.openmrs.org/t/error-when-running-mvn-openmrs-sdk-run-command/35165)._
