from given stacktrace can see classes not found, since using spring boot, spring boot uses meta dependencies contains several dependencies, mentioned in spring-boot-cookbook

spring boot aims simplify process of getting started application creation. spring boot starters bootstrap libraries contain collection of relevant transitive dependencies needed start particular functionality

spring-data-jpa not enough, there other dependencies need, use spring-boot-starter-data-jpa

<dependency>         <groupid>org.springframework.boot</groupid>         <artifactid>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactid> </dependency>
