mvn spring-boot:run vs Run

I'm testing spring-boot-devtools with livereload on intelliJ. I have simple SpringBootApplication that works fine.

When I start the app from maven command "mvn spring-boot:run" all works fine excepting that livereload server dont' start. No message on console appears and the chrome extensions show error that It's not possible to connect to livereload server.

If I start app with (right mousse button/Run Application.java), all works fine even livereload server. Message appears on console and browser is able to connect to livereload server.

Starting app from right mousse button/Run Application.java

Console message

Chorme extension message:

Could not connect to LiveReload server. Please make sure that a compatible LiveReload server is running. (We recommend guard-livereload, until LiveReload2 comes to your platform.)

Console message. See that not show message LiveReload server is running on port....

You need to tell Maven to fork a separate JVM to run your application, rather than it running in the same JVM as Maven:

$ mvn spring-boot:run -Dfork=true
