Error creating bean with name 'mongoTemplate' while connecting mongodb through Spring

I am trying to connect mongoDb with Spring's mongoTemplate. I also tried changing version of 'spring-data-mongodb' from 1.7.2.RELEASE to 1.8.2.RELEASE, but even that didn't work. Below is my code as used in the project. Here's my pom.xml ``` <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.storeApp</groupId> <artifactId>storeApp</artifactId> <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version> <name>Store Application</name> <parent> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId> <version>1.4.1.RELEASE</version> </parent> <dependencies> <!-- <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework</groupId> <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId> <version>4.2.4.RELEASE</version> </dependency> --> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-mongodb</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId> <artifactId>spring-data-mongodb</artifactId> <version>1.7.2.RELEASE</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <finalName>storeApp</finalName> </build> <repositories> <repository> <id>spring-releases</id> <name>Spring Releases</name> <url>https://repo.spring.io/libs-release</url> </repository> </repositories> <pluginRepositories> <pluginRepository> <id>spring-releases</id> <name>Spring Releases</name> <url>https://repo.spring.io/libs-release</url> </pluginRepository> </pluginRepositories> </project> ``` My SpringMongoConfig file ``` package com.storeApp.config; import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext; import org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.MongoDbFactory; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoFactoryBean; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoOperations; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.SimpleMongoDbFactory; import com.mongodb.MongoClient; @Configuration public class SpringMongoConfig1 { public @Bean MongoDbFactory mongoDbFactory() throws Exception{ return new SimpleMongoDbFactory(new MongoClient(), "storeApp"); } public @Bean MongoTemplate mongoTemplate() throws Exception{ MongoTemplate mongoTemplate = new MongoTemplate(mongoDbFactory()); return mongoTemplate; } // ApplicationContext ctx = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(SpringMongoConfig.class); // MongoOperations mongoOperation = (MongoOperations)ctx.getBean("mongoTemplate"); } ``` This is my main class ``` package com.storeApp.core; import java.util.List; import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext; import org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoOperations; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Criteria; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Query; import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Update; import com.storeApp.config.SpringMongoConfig1; import com.storeApp.config.SpringMongoConfig2; import com.storeApp.model.Store; public class StoreMainApp { public static void main(String[] args) { ApplicationContext ctx = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(SpringMongoConfig1.class); MongoOperations mongoOperation = (MongoOperations)ctx.getBean("mongoTemplate"); Store store = new Store("Sample store 1", "Street 1", "City 1", (float) 35.4); System.out.println("into main method"); // mongoOperation.save(store); } } ``` Stacktrace : ``` SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
