I am new to spring, so i downloaded jar from spring intializr for maven-web java 1.8 demo. I extracted and imported it to STS to run the main() file and I get below exception. Can some one tell me what's solution for this?
Solutions I tried from web but didn't work: - Tried adding Hibernate-validator dependency to pom - Tried adding spring-boot-starter-tomcat dependency to pom
