spring data neo4j version issue - spring

Question

I am trying to use spring-data-neo4j in my grails project but there are so many version conflicting.
I am using following dependency
compile org.springframework.data:spring-data-neo4j-rest:3.1.2.RELEASE
then if i run my neo4j server 2.1.2 then it is giving me error
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'neo4jMappingContext' defined in class org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException
... 4 more
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
... 4 more
and if i run 1.8.3 neo4j server then it seems that it connects to server but again getting error
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'typeRepresentationStrategyFactory' defined in class org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public org.springframework.data.neo4j.support.typerepresentation.TypeRepresentationStrategyFactory org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.Neo4jConfiguration.typeRepresentationStrategyFactory() throws java.lang.Exception] threw exception; nested exception is org.neo4j.rest.graphdb.RestResultException: expected START or CREATE
"MATCH (ref:ReferenceNode {name:{name}}) RETURN ref"

SyntaxException
please let me know what i am missing or if someone could tell me exact versions which i should use.
