Does the generator only works with micro-service, not monolith?

[ender1975]

I'm experiencing the same issue with JHipster 8.6.0.

The sub-generator is supposed to ask what type of application we have (monolith vs microservce), so it should work with both and it used to work for me with JHipster v7.

Additionally, when I run the generator in the parent folder of my app, then it asks the questions, but when I give it the location of my monolith app, it fails saying it didn't find any monolith apps there.
