Spring Boot ClassNotFoundException org.springframework.core.metrics.ApplicationStartup when using Eureka Server

Question

I was following this tutorial on Eureka https://www.baeldung.com/spring-cloud-netflix-eureka, yesterday everything was working fine but today when I try to start my eureka-server I receive the following error :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/core/metrics/ApplicationStartup

My spring version : 5.1.4.RELEASE

What I have tried:

Adding spring-context support dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-context-support</artifactId>
    <version>5.3.8</version>
</dependency>

Purging the maven local repository using: mvn dependency:purge-local-repository

I can't understand why is this happening since yesterday when I ran my application it was perfectly fine.
