When I run this code with IntelliJ IDEA:

StreamExecutionEnvironment env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment();
StreamTableEnvironment tableEnv = StreamTableEnvironment.create(env);

I get this error: Exception in thread “main”

org.apache.flink.table.api.TableException: Could not instantiate the executor. Make sure a planner module is on the classpath

my pom.xml also contains:
