Java language server seems to fail to start due to not finding the parent project specified in pom.xml

My work has this really funky setup for projects where there is this overarching Maven project called microservice-parent. Now the git repo contains a maven submodule of that project called dp-ms-demand-automation-parent, and that contains a maven submodule called dp-ms-demand-automation-server.

Folder structure looks like this

dp-ms-demand-automation
    .git/
    pom.xml (dp-ms-demand-automation-parent)
    server/
        pom.xml (dp-ms-demand-automation-server)
        src/

As you can see there is a ghost Maven project for microservice-parent.

The following error is shown in both pom files.

[Java] Project build error: Non-resolvable parent POM for com.tenx.ms:dp-ms-demand-automation-parent:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT: Failure to find com.tenx.ms:microservice-parent:pom:1.5.14-1 in https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2 was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of central has elapsed or updates are forced and 'parent.relativePath' points at no local POM

Is it possible to have the language server still start even though this error exists?

Environment

• Operating System: macOS 14
• JDK version: 8.172
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.28.2
• Java extension version: 0.33

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create project structure similar to the one above
2. Open vscode
