Spring Boot - can't start with embedded tomcat error

Question

pom.xml

    
        org.springframework.boot
        spring-boot-starter-parent         


        

Answer 1

Add this dependency to your pom.xml.

    com.fasterxml.jackson.core
    jackson-databind

Tomcat dependency (spring-boot-starter-tomcat) is not required as it is already inbuilt with "spring-boot-starter-web"
