I upgraded spring boot from 1.3.5 to 1.5.17 and the log4j library is no longer found. The error says Error:(10, 24) java: package org.apache.log4j does not exist. Here is my pom.xml

Since Spring Boot 1.4, support for log4j 1.x has been dropped, as can be seen in the release notes of Spring boot 1.4 :
Log4j 1 support has been removed following Apache EOL announcement .
They recommend to upgrade to log4j 2.x, which can be done by using the following dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-log4j2</artifactId>
</dependency>
