If you are under spring boot, jackson is added by default,
So the version you are adding manualy is probably conflicting with the one spring boot adds,
Try to delete the jackson dependencies from your pom

I'd like to write this to a different answer, since the stacktrace you provided lead me to a completely different path.
I see in your pom.xml that you use jackson-core:2.1.3 and jackson-databind:2.1.3 version, which is more than 7 years old at this point.
However, based in this list, the spring version you use expects the much newer 2.9.8 version. So probably, the method not found exception is because during runtime, spring gets a completely different version of the ObjectMapper class (source code here), which probably doesn't have the required addMixIn() method.
To fix this, since the parent of you pom.xml is set to the spring-boot-starter-parent, you can just delete the tag which sets the version of all of your dependencies starting with jackson and spring.
I quickly went through the original version of you pom.xml and cleaned it up a little, try replacing the content of your pom.xml with this:

Please take a look at this part of your pom.xml:

<version>2.1.3.RELEASE</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
This was not meant to be in project.dependencies. It was mean to be in project.dependencyManagement.dependencies.
What is probably happening is that maven includes all the dependencies into your project on compile-time, but doesn't package them with your application.
In the meantime, you use a dependency that is available because of the part I highlighted, but the class is not available during runtime.
Please try to place the part I highlighted like this:
<project>
...
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>2.1.3.RELEASE</version>
<type>import</type>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
...
</project>
Also pay attention to the scope, which changed from provided to import.

You're using the Spring Cloud Dalston version wihch is built on Spring Boot 1.5.x
So I think you have to use a compatible version with spring boot 2.x.
Try using the Greenwich release
<spring-cloud.version>Greenwich.RELEASE</spring-cloud.version>
then clean and reinstall your project using Maven.

And tried to make a test:
ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
#SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
public class UserControllerTest {
#Test
public void register() {
}
}
But there is not the SpringExtension.class, I can't import it.
Error:(7, 13) java: cannot find symbol
symbol: class SpringExtension
How to fix my pom.xml or maybe can I use a some another class?
P.S. I'm a noobie in the Spring so my question may be stupid but I can't get how to resolve.

The problem is with the version of Spring Boot. You are providing 1.5.9.RELEASE, but that class is provided from Spring 5 (according to SpringExtension), so try to use newer version of Spring Boot like 2.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT or another extension like that one.

Your spring-boot version 1.5.9.RELEASE will not support Junit 5. Please change the spring-boot version to spring-boot-starter-parent version 2.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT
Add the below line to your pom.xml
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>

I Had a similar issue and it turns out the jar file, located at ~/.m2/repository/org/springframework/spring-test/5.0.5.RELEASE/spring-test-5.0.5.RELEASE.jar was corrupt. I had to delete the jar and refresh pom.xml

Spring-Social Dependency not found

I wanted to add the spring-social-facebook dependency.
It worked with the latest RELEASE 2.0.3
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.social</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-social-facebook</artifactId>
<version>2.0.3.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
But when I want to add the newer Version (not a release but a milestone)
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.social</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-social-facebook</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0.M3</version>
</dependency>
then maven does not find the files.
Did I forget anything?

There is a note along with the link you've shared:
Note: this artifact it located at Spring Milestones repository
(http://repo.spring.io/milestone/)
By default, maven looks for artifacts in the central repository, where you wouldn't find the 3.0.0.M3 version of your dependency as visible in this search result.
Would suggest you to go through the Introduction to repositories in maven. Accordingly modify them to include http://repo.spring.io/milestone/ as the url to fetch your desired artifact.

I think the required dependency should be
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-test</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
or
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
Thank you for your help.

So I figured out the package I need is servlet and not server. I don't know if the package was renamed tough.
Anyway thanks for the help!
