NoClassDefFound is thrown on attempt to create JedisConnectionFactory-CodePudding

I have generated a brand new springboot project using SpringInitializr in my IntellijIDEA (v.2022.2.1). As a result I got pom.xml like this:

The problem is when I try to create an instance of JedisConnectionFactory(like JedisConnectionFactory factory = new JedisConnectionFactory();) it throws an exception java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: redis/clients/jedis/JedisClientConfig. The project does not have any code nor configuration...except for the default that was generated by Initialzr. What could be the reason for the class not to be in the classpath?

CodePudding user response：

JedisClientConfig is not a class, it is an interface.

CodePudding user response：

It turned to be trivial - I just had to add jedis dependency explicitly in pom.xml
