Spring Amqp has NoClassDefFoundError in springframework RetryCallback class

I have been working on a distributed web project and I want to utilize Spring amqp using RabbitMq in it. I use springFramework version 4.1.6 in my project. To do this, I have added the following dependencies to the file pom.xml.

<dependency>
            <groupId>com.rabbitmq</groupId>
            <artifactId>amqp-client</artifactId>
            <version>3.5.7</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.amqp</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-amqp</artifactId>
            <version>1.5.3.RELEASE</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.amqp</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-rabbit</artifactId>
            <version>1.5.3.RELEASE</version>
        </dependency>

In addition, I place a RabbitMQ configuration file below in web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    <rabbit:template id="amqpTemplate" connection-factory="connectionFactory" />

    <rabbit:admin connection-factory="connectionFactory" />

    <rabbit:queue name="myQueue" />

    <rabbit:topic-exchange name="myExchange">
        <rabbit:bindings>
            <rabbit:binding queue="myQueue" pattern="myQueue"></rabbit:binding>
        </rabbit:bindings>
    </rabbit:topic-exchange>

    <bean id="rabbitListenerContainerFactory"
        class="org.springframework.amqp.rabbit.config.SimpleRabbitListenerContainerFactory">
        <property name="connectionFactory" ref="connectionFactory" />
        <property name="concurrentConsumers" value="3" />
        <property name="maxConcurrentConsumers" value="10" />
    </bean>

    <rabbit:annotation-driven container-factory="rabbitListenerContainerFactory" />

    <rabbit:listener-container
        connection-factory="connectionFactory" />

</beans>

Furthermore, I wrote methods in order to send

@Service
public class PrmSpringRabbitMessageSender {
   @Autowired
   private AmqpTemplate amqpTemplate;

   public void sendMessage(String queueName, String message) {
      amqpTemplate.convertAndSend(queueName, message);
   }
}

And receive messages like below:

@Component
public class PrmSpringRabbitMessageReceiver {
   @RabbitListener(queues = "myQueue")
   public void handleMessage(String data) {
      System.out.println("Received Message : " + data);
   }
}

But when I run the project, I faced a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError like below:

To solve the problem, I added the dependency below to my project:

<dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.retry</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-retry</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.3.RELEASE</version>
        </dependency>

Unfortunately, I still have another error which is related to lack of another class:

I will really appreciate if any one help me tackle this problem.

The class you miss here is in this lib:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-messaging</artifactId>
  <version>4.2.4.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

In general if you miss some obscure class (getting NoClassDefFoundError for a third-party) the best way is to use:

central Nexus search by classname
