NoClassDefFoundError for springframework/boot/logging/LoggingSystem

Question

Anyone familiar with this runtime exception?

I have built a jar which tries to instantiate a bean based on an application-config.xml. It looks like the bean gets instantiated, well the ctor gets called but shortly after I get the below exception.

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'loggingRebinder' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/cloud/autoconfigure/RefreshAutoConfiguration.class]: Post-processing of merged bean definition failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/boot/logging/LoggingSystem

Darren, you asked for the pom, are you able to take a look for me? — mrmannione, Feb 07 '18 at 11:37
Also need that parent. It looks like you're trying to run a spring boot app but dependencies are not there. — Darren Forsythe, Feb 07 '18 at 15:28
I am going to take a different approach, but from my debugging I think you are correct that dependencies are missing. Thaks for your help. — mrmannione, Feb 08 '18 at 15:54
The issue lies somewhere in your parent or how you've defined your boot application. Normally you do not need to specify the logging starter as it is generally pulled in by other starters. — Darren Forsythe, Feb 08 '18 at 20:21
