setting up rabbit mq in a multi module maven project - spring-boot

I have a multi module maven project which has two sub modules for now.
authentication
gateway(spring boot application)
For inter service communication I chose Rabbit MQ, and here is the root pom.xml:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.amqp</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-amqp</artifactId>
<version>2.4.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.amqp</groupId>

</dependency>

<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>17</source>
<target>17</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
And the gateway pom.xml is as follows:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
but when I start the gateway server I get
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: LoggerFactory is not a Logback LoggerContext but Logback is on the classpath.

How can I reduced the maven Jar file size Currently 255 MB?

How can I reduce the Maven Executable Jar file size. Currently its 255 MB. It is not allowing to deploy in Cloudformation.
I am doing the deployment via cloudformation --> Lambda and API Getway.
If I can reduce the file from 255 MB, Then my problem will be solved.
I have seen from the JAR file, This below 2 dependency are taking 195 MB.
<dependency>

</dependency>

<artifactId>aws-serverless-java-container-spring</artifactId>
<version>[0.1,)</version>
What I should to reduce it ?

This is issue is resolved, I am using AWS Dependency -
<dependency>
<groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
<artifactId>aws-java-sdk</artifactId>
<version>1.11.931</version>
</dependency>
I don't need all the dependency, I need only S3 and Lambda. So Have remove this dependency. It decrease my Jar file. 255 MB to 50 MB.

Making an executable jar with Maven/Spring/Eclipse

So I already tried these:
Add plugin in pom.xml
Delete .m2 folder to do a clean package in run as Maven build...
running mvn clean (on project folder in eclipse IDE)
Closing and running eclipse again.
The thing is: When I run the main class on eclipse as Java application, the eclipse console shows the app starting up with spring logo. But when I make a Maven build or extract the project as .jar file and try to do java -jar, An exception occurs:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/boot/SpringApplication
at br.com.bancodigimais.keypaypagamentos.portalpos.PortalPosApplication.main(PortalPosApplication.java:34)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication at java.base
Why this occurs? I mean...it's possible to make this project to build the jar as executable? When you use the java -jar command and see the spring logo starts the application and so on...

The maven-jar-plugin will create a jar file that contains only your application classes and resources. The jar file will not contain other code that is required to run the application, such as the Spring Boot code including the class org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication. For this to work you would need to list all dependency jar files with java -jar <jar-file-path> -cp <list of all dependency jar files>.
Spring Boot supports executable jar files by packaging the application code and all dependent jars into a single jar file. It also creates the MANIFEST.MF entries automatically so you don't need that configuration in your pom.xml. There is more information about this in the Spring Boot documentation and the Spring Boot Maven Plugin documentation.

Failure when deploying Spring App to Heroku

I am trying to deploy my spring application to heroku but there is some error in maven plugins I believe. Have tried every possible version combination, things worked locally but not when deploying.
When i'm running :
git push heroku master

Java 9 is not supported by Heroku, you can choose between 1.7, 1.8, 11, 13, 15 and 16, where 1.8 is the default. See Heroku Supported Java Versions.
If you do not want to use the default 1.8 you can change the Java version placing a file called system.properties in the project root setting the desired JDK:
java.runtime.version=16

Unable to open nested jar file (spring-boot-starter-web) when running from jar

I have a Spring boot application that runs fine via IntelliJ's Spring Boot run configuration as well as with mvn spring-boot:run, however, when I attempt to package via mvn package I get the following error when running from java -jar application.jar
java.io.IOException: Unable to open nested jar file

This seems similar to java.io.IOException when running Spring Boot jar on Centos 6.4 / Open JDK 1.7.0 but the solution was to remove a corrupt jar file related to TLD libraries and that question doesn't reference which nested jar couldn't be loaded (so I'm unsure if it's exactly the same issue). I have tried deleting and recreating the ~/.m2/repository directory to no avail. I've also tried different versions of Spring Boot (as I've never run across this issue before) with no luck.
My pom file is below.

Edit
After deleting the ~/m2/repository directory in Finder and emptying the Trash, I did a Reimport from Intellij and then a package from the Maven Projects menu. When trying to run the final product with java -jar target/application.jar I get a new error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException:

Turns out this is related to this question. Despite Java 8 supposedly supporting a huge number of files, I had about 77k in my jar file (due to the inclusion of the node_modules directory from my React frontend) and when I configured the exclude filters properly, it worked like a charm.
Moral of the story, hitting that maximum file limit will cause weird things to happen.

Failed to instantiate SLF4J LoggerFactory on Spring 'mvc-basic' tutorial

I'm trying a Spring 3.x tutorial on Eclipse 3.7 with m2e and Maven Integration for WTP plugins installed.
I converted the above tutorial to Maven Project, but when i deploy the web application i get the following exception:
Failed to instantiate SLF4J LoggerFactory

I also checked in 'Project Properties' -> 'Java Build Path' -> 'Libraries' but the only log4j jar that i found is the one under 'Maven Dependencies'
Seems like i'm messing with jars but i can't find a solution by myself.
Try to clean the project and server in eclipse. It looks like a refreshing problem.
If you use Maven (M2E) in Eclipse then it is correct that the libs are only in the "Maven Dependencies Section".
May you start with an Spring Source Tool Suite Template Project (that is maven based) and then you copy the code from the tutorial into this project.
If you use Tomcat, then Eclipse must copy the libs to workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp<VERSION>\wtpwebapps\<PROJECT>\WEB-INF\lib.
If the lib is not there, and eclipse does not copy it even if you refersh every thing. Then sometimes the last thing you can do is, Remove the project from the server (in the "Add and Remove..." Dialog) press Finish, and then add the project again.
Looks like some other library has dependency on SLF4J. Create a WAR file and check if SLF4J.jar is packaged in the war. If not, check your Appservers common lib directory. In case its loading it.
Check the Dependency graph of your pom.xml.
In case if you want to add SLF4J log4j API below is the dependency.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
<version>1.6.4</version>
</dependency>
