We are implementing spring cloud zuul proxy in our application. Problem is that we are not able to run it using spring boot parent version 2.2.2.RELEASE.

Everything is working fine with spring boot parent version 1.5.22.RELEASE (which we used to use earlier). Lately, we are updating our applications to run on higher spring boot version.

for reference below is the pom.xml file

We are getting below error response:

Issue resolves if we comment higher spring boot parent version and uncomment lower one.

What should we do to maintain our application works on higher version.
Tried including commons logging dependency also.. but didn’t worked.
