Question

I am new to Spring and trying to have a Spring Cloud configuration server, But when i am trying to start server , i am getting below error :-
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Failed to process import candidates for configuration class [org.springframework.cloud.config.server.config.ConfigServerAutoConfiguration]; nested exception is java.io.FileNotFoundException: class path resource [org/springframework/web/servlet/config/annotation/WebMvcConfigurerAdapter.class] cannot be opened because it does not exist

Below is the snippet of Configuration server :-
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.cloud.config.server.EnableConfigServer;
#EnableConfigServer
#SpringBootApplication
public class ConfigServerApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(ConfigServerApplication.class, args);
}
}
Below is pom.xml for the project :-

Below is the application.properties :-

Any suggestion would be helpful.

You must have spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri pointing to some git repository.
Example : spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=URL_TOGIT_REPO
Here is the youtube link for spring cloud example
