The beginner of OXM, mostly get the error you have mentioned. I also got same error. This error is because of wrong spring-oxm JAR. I have solved my problem using the following Gradle file.

dependencies {

compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter:1.2.2.RELEASE'

compile 'org.springframework:spring-oxm:4.1.5.RELEASE'

compile 'org.codehaus.castor:castor-xml:1.3.3'

}
