Is that a JPA Project?
If you are using Spring Data JPA you should add the dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-jpa</artifactId>
<version>1.11.3.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
If the project is only a JDBC project you should add:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-jdbc</artifactId>
<version>4.1.2.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

The annotation #Repository (org.springframework.stereotype.Repository) is in the jar:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
</dependency>
so you don't need to add any other dependency.
Try to update the Maven project Project -> right click -> Maven -> Update project
If it doesn't work try to disable Maven Nature:
Project -> right click -> Maven -> Disable Maven Nature
And add Maven Nature again.
You can try with newer Spring versions, like 4.3.8.RELEASE, too.

SpringMVC + Spring Security Hibernate + Thymeleaf - is my pom.xml too much?

My application was first built using JSPs, and at a later stage I switched to Thymeleaf + HTML5. But I have never taken the time to clean up my pom.xml.
So, are the bellow declared dependencies too much? Are they likely to cause overhead and performance issues?

<dependency>

</dependency>
and
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.ws.rs</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.ws.rs-api</artifactId>
<version>2.0.1</version>
</dependency>
together. As you written, your project is "Spring MVC", so you can use Spring API to write REST-services (using #Controller and #RequestMapping) - as result you can delete javax.ws library, because this is JavaEE (#Path, #GET, #Consumes, etc) and it is better to use with Jersey or another implementations. But not necessary

spring-hibernate3 with hibernate-core-4.1.2

I want to set open session in view pattern controlled by Spring. I am using Hibernate 4.1.2. Now if I add spring-hibernate3 in pom.xml eventually it add its dependency hibernate-3.2.5.ga. I think I can not have these two hibernates at a time.
If I want to use spring-hibernate3 should I remove the hibernate-core-4.1.2.jar?

Yes, if you remove the hibernate-core 4.1.2 dependency from your pom.xml file, you'll only have the hibernate3 jar in your classpath.
But since spring-hibernate seems to be pretty old (from the Spring point of view, the latest is 2.0.8 version and lastest Spring Core is 3.1.1)
But I think you can use the open session in view pattern with your current setup, since spring-orm-3.1.1 supports Hibernate4; take a look at http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.1.x/javadoc-api/org/springframework/orm/hibernate4/support/package-summary.html.

What is correct version or jackson for spring?

I am using jackson converter (MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter) to consume and produce json data from spring controller. But while invoking controller throws following exception.

I can see in spring-web pom file jackson version is mentioned as 1.4.2 and same I have used still it is throwing exception regarding method not found. Am I using correct version?

You seem to be missing the jackson-core dependency. You need that as well as jackson-mapper.
The 1.4.x version should be fine, although it shouldn't hurt to upgrade it to something more recent.

I think you have differing versions between Jackson core and mapper jars (former has streaming parser/generator; latter data binding). It is hard to ensure that transitive dependencies have compatible versions -- while multiple Jackson versions work just fine with Spring (and most other frameworks), versions of mapper and core have bit stricter dependencies.
Specifically: version of core should not be much older than version of mapper, as newer mapper versions depend on new features in core. Reverse matters less; so it is generally fine to have older mapper version, newer core (core also changes at much slower pace at this point).

I found the problem.
Use Jacson version 1.4.2 should not have problem and as StaxMan suggested core is dependably for mapper so it will be automatically resolved no need to declare it explicitly.
Now coming back to problem. It is classpath issue within jboss. I have two web application deployed in same server one with dependency on jacson versioin 1.1.1 and other one with 1.4.2. I dont yet have solution, So I have posted another question related to Jboss.
