Could not initialize class org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.SpringHibernateJpaPersistenceProvider

I'm trying to learn Spring Data JPA and I'm getting the following exception:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in org.mql.gestionstages.config.PersistanceJPAConfig: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean]: Factory method 'entityManagerFactory' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.SpringHibernateJpaPersistenceProvider

I have the following configuration class for JPA :

@Configuration
@EnableTransactionManagement
public class PersistanceJPAConfig {


   @Bean
   public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() {
      LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean em 
        = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
      em.setDataSource(dataSource());
      em.setPackagesToScan(new String[] { "mypackage.models" });
      **JpaVendorAdapter vendorAdapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();**
      em.setJpaVendorAdapter(vendorAdapter);
      em.setJpaProperties(additionalProperties());
      return em;
   }

   @Bean
   public DriverManagerDataSource dataSource(){
       DriverManagerDataSource dataSource = new DriverManagerDataSource();
       dataSource.setDriverClassName("com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");
       dataSource.setUrl("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/gestion_stages");
       dataSource.setUsername("root");
       dataSource.setPassword("");
       return dataSource;
   }

   @Bean
   public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(EntityManagerFactory emf) {
       JpaTransactionManager transactionManager = new JpaTransactionManager();
       transactionManager.setEntityManagerFactory(emf);

       return transactionManager;
   }

   @Bean
   public PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor exceptionTranslation(){
       return new PersistenceExceptionTranslationPostProcessor();
   }

   Properties additionalProperties() {
       Properties properties = new Properties();
       properties.setProperty("hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto", "create-drop");
       properties.setProperty("hibernate.dialect", "org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL57Dialect");

       return properties;
   }
}

The exception is thrown in this line:

JpaVendorAdapter vendorAdapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
