Spring boot application fails to start after editing pom.xml

When I download our project from SVN repository and start the project it works fine and everything is working. But whenever I add some dependency to pom.xml and start the project it gives me this exception.

Could anyone tell me what can cause the problem?
Edit:
When i try to add servlet-api dependency:

Remove <scope>provided</scope> from the tomcat starter.
You are making an executable jar, so the embedded Tomcat will provide the servlet related classes not the servlet container.
Therefore compile scope is needed, so Tomcat will be part of your built jar file.

Spring Boot + Spring Data JPA + H2:Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource

I am new to Spring Boot and Maven and I am trying to run a simple project based from the Spring Data JPA guide but I am getting the following error. I have checked all over the forum but I couldn't find a solution that fit my problem. In the pom file posted, I already see these dependencies in the Effective POM tab in STS with the version numbers, which comes from what is in the tag of the pom file posted so I am not sure why I still have to put them into the pom file I posted as well. Does anyone know what I am missing or doing wrong here?
I am getting the following:
Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the auto-configuration report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled.

I found the answer. I had to explicitly use an new dependency for hibernate-core for spring boot 1.5.4. The 4.2.x version works as well, but I wanted to go with the newer one.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
<version>5.2.10.Final</version>
</dependency>

I think you have some cross references, in this case you can access relational data using JDBC
change this dependency in your pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>
</dependency>
For this
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-jdbc</artifactId>
</dependency>

Spring Boot from Eclipse to IntelliJ

I've been programming for a while in Eclipse now, but I have a new job and everything uses IntelliJ, so for my own projects I want to start IntelliJ as well now to get used to the shortcuts and what not. The Spring Boot application I have works perfectly in Eclipse, when I start it from there as well. I tried to start a new project in IntelliJ from the pom.xml. I have no idea what the problem is. Can anyone help me please? Below is the message I get when trying to start the main in the Spring Boot:

I realize the question is almost a year old, but since no answers yet... I also have a Spring Boot (2.0.1) project which works in Eclipse but fails with the same exceptions you list in Intellij. CrazyCoder's comment was the fix (so he should get the answer if he posts as an answer).
In Intellij, I went to File > Project Structure, then selected Modules, and went to the Dependencies tab. I changed the scope of spring-boot-starter-tomcat from provided to compile. I was then able to start the boot project from within Intellij.

What am I missing?

Use 5.1.0.Final or higher version of hibernate, sqlite-dialect built on 5.1.Final. Please refer here
The default version of hibernate in 1.5.2 spring-boot is 5.0.12.Final, Hence update pom.xml to use Hibernate 5.1.0.Final
<properties>
<project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
<maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
<hibernate.version>5.1.0.Final</hibernate.version>

Spring boot: javassist not found

I'm starting with spring boot and I'm trying to write a small application coupled with an H2 in memory DB.
When I'm trying to run my application I've got java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javassist.bytecode.ClassFile
So I gueesed javassit jar was missing on the classpath. I started the application in debug mode and javassist-3.18.1-GA.jar is present in the classpath.
I'm certainly missing something but I can't figure out what.
here is the content of my POM file

adding a dependency to javassist doesn't solve the problem for info.

Its a problem with maven dependencies. Go to your .m2 folder and erase the folder of javassist. Then update your maven dependencies and it's gonna work. I had the same problem, and it works to me

I think you are missing this dependency:
org.springframework.boot
spring-boot-starter-data-jpa

You should add javassist as one of the dependencies.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.javassist</groupId>
<artifactId>javassist</artifactId>
<version>${javassist.version}</version>
</dependency>

I finally solved the issue.
I had the exact same issue when trying to run the springboot jpa sample and decided to clean my maven repository to start from scratch.
I works know. I'm not sure what was the initial problem though.
