How to solve “Failed to instantiate WebApplicationInitializer class”

I found a good example for generating odata from MySQL at this GitHub repository
I can run the project by using the command mvn spring-boot:run -P jar inside the eclipse. The only part that I changed in comparison to the original code is my connection details to my local MySQL inside the application.properties file:
# WEB SERVER
server.port=9090
# MYSQL DATA SOURCE
spring.datasource.url = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/olingo
spring.datasource.username = admin
spring.datasource.password = 123456
spring.datasource.testWhileIdle = true
spring.datasource.validationQuery = SELECT 1
# HANA (CLOUD) DB
#spring.datasource.jndi-name = java:comp/env/jdbc/DefaultDB
#spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto = update
#spring.datasource.testWhileIdle = true
#spring.datasource.validationQuery = SELECT 1
# HSQL DB
#spring.datasource.platform=hsqldb
# JPA / HIBERNATE
spring.jpa.show-sql = false
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto = update
spring.jpa.hibernate.naming-strategy = org.hibernate.cfg.ImprovedNamingStrategy
# AZURE
#logging.path = D://home//LogFiles
And here is the pom.xml:

I can build the project with mvn clean install but when I deploy the war file inside the Tomcat it cannot run the app. It seems the same issue is the source of the problem!
Any help for solving this issue is appreciated.

I think you didn't let spring know about some bean class.
Look at your xml or configuration file for LoggerFactory
In the exception stack above,
it says java.lang.ClassNotFoundException occured.
Spring can't find class files even if you have them in your java src package.
If my answer doesn't solve your problem,
you need to show your xml or source code to make sure what the problem is.

I changed the pom.xml and removed the profiles, then I could build the project with mvn clean install which will result a war file that I can deploy in Tomcat.

However when I deploy it in the Tomcat it can access the database for some hours and after some hours it cannot anymore fetch data from MySQL!
When we want to run the app inside the Eclipse with Run on Server option, it needs to access the app after a success run like this http://localhost:9090/<artifactName>/ i.e. http://localhost:9090/odata/ in this case!

Possibly a corrupt jar in your Maven repo. Try forcing Maven to rebuild your repo, or try building your project with a different version of Jackson, say, 2.7.2.
EDIT: You can check this answer too: Deploying Maven project throws java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid LOC header (bad signature)

Your contextpath variable is undefined:

you need to change it to something meaningful, like:
<contextPath>/</contextPath>
This will map your webapp to the root context, so you can access it by:

Arquillian glassfish-managed test Absent Code attribute error

I am trying to work through Arquillian Getting Started guide. Everything works fine as long as I use arquillian-weld-ee-embedded container. However, when I try to switch to glassfish-managed, I get this error:
Tests in error: org.arquillian.example.GreeterTest: Absent Code attribute in method that is not native or abstract in class file javax/mail/MessagingException
I used a configuration shown in Reference Guide.
