D:\project\Java9Gradle\src\main\java\module-info.java
Error:(1, 1) java: module Java9Gradle.main reads package org.apache.commons.logging from both jcl.over.slf4j and commons.logging

My dependencies file and the module-info.java file are very straight forward.

module Java9Gradle.main {
    requires spring.boot;
}


group 'Java9Gradle'
version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'

apply plugin: 'java'

sourceCompatibility = 1.9

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    // https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot-starter
    compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter', version: '1.5.3.RELEASE'
    // https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot-starter-web
    compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-web', version: '1.5.3.RELEASE'
    testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'
}

Can someone please help??

Thanks,

Amar

Excluding the transitive dependency made it work and adjusting the module-info.java too!!!

compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter:1.5.3.RELEASE") {
        exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
    }
    compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:1.5.3.RELEASE"){
        exclude group: 'commons-logging', module: 'commons-logging'
    }
