Could not autowire field is Spring MVC + Hibernate

Question

I've started trying to get my head around spring mvc framework yesterday, and have encountered a problem. I get the error:

Error creating bean with name 'userController': Injection of autowired dependencies failed;
Could not autowire field: com.springapp.mvc.service.UserService
com.springapp.mvc.controller.UserController.userService; nested exception is 
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: [Lorg/hibernate/engine/FilterDefinition;

I've checked other solutions and most of them have to do with people providing incorrect contexts. I've provided the base context, and not .controller directory. IntelliJ auto-generated me mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml and I assume this is my application context. Does this mean I need to create servlet context?

Project structure:

I've ommited imports for a little more conciseness.
