NoClassDefFoundError while starting the EurekaServer - spring-boot

Question

I am developing a simple microservice application using spring boot but when I start the registry server it is ending up in exception.
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.cloud.netflix.eureka.server.EnableEurekaServer;
#EnableEurekaServer
#SpringBootApplication
public class EurekaServiceApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(EurekaServiceApplication.class, args);
}
}
