Cannot find org.springframework.util.ClassUtils.getMethod and could not initialize DefaultConversionService

Question

Once I run my application it shows following error in the console. I studied this question but its answer was not helpful.

Answer 1

As I expected the problem was with the dependencies. I could solve the issue by updating my pom.xml and cleaning the project.

pom.xml
