java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder maven

Hi,

You should add the following code into pom.xml file:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
        <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.6</version>
    </dependency>

This will solve the problem.

Usually following error comes if the dependency is not satisfied:
