Apache POI java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError reading an excel file

Question

I'm having some problem trying to read an Excel file, using Apache POI

Here's the exception: org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Handler dispatch failed; nested exception is java.lang.BootstrapMethodError: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/poi/ss/usermodel/WorkbookFactory$CreateWorkbook0

I've done some research and found many stackoverflow solutions, that i tried to apply without results. I also checked all the imported jars under the buil path -> Library -> maven dependency and all the suggested jars are in place. The dependency added to the project are:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
        <artifactId>poi</artifactId>
        <version>4.1.0</version>
        <type>jar</type>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
        <artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
        <version>4.1.2</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
        <artifactId>poi-ooxml-schemas</artifactId>
        <version>3.15</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.xmlbeans</groupId>
        <artifactId>xmlbeans</artifactId>
        <version>3.1.0</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
        <artifactId>commons-collections4</artifactId>
        <version>4.3</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
        <artifactId>commons-compress</artifactId>
        <version>1.20</version>
    </dependency>

I'm i missing something?

Any help is appreciated
