Spring Boot Missing Plugin when Running from Command Line

I have a maven project that I can run in Eclipse, but I can’t get it to run from the linux command line. I get an error when I run ‘mvn spring-boot:run’:

“No plugin found for prefix ‘spring-boot’ in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repositories”

Here is my POM:

</project>

Answer

I ended up using the full command “mvn org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-maven-plugin:1.3.5.RELEASE:run”, which worked for some reason when I ran it from the directory containing the pom.xml file.
