spring boot Error Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings.

[#1]

HI, I have a spring boot application. It can run on localhost. but when you deploy a war file on the server. It can not start and generate errors:

SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings.
SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/home/binye/.m2/repository/ch/qos/logback/logback-classic/1.1.11/logback-classic-1.1.11.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]
SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/home/binye/.m2/repository/org/slf4j/slf4j-log4j12/1.7.25/slf4j-log4j12-1.7.25.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#multiple_bindings for an explanation.
SLF4J: Actual binding is of type [ch.qos.logback.classic.util.ContextSelectorStaticBinder]

However, i could not find which one is conflict.

Your application contains two jar files which both contain a slf4j logger implementation. The jar files are listed in the output you provided. Exclude one of these jars from your application's classpath.
