ClassNotFoundException org.reflections.Configuration When Using Optaplanner 7.0.0.Final

I was develop an application that use Optaplanner 7.0.0.Final. Here is my pom.xml content:

When I tried to run my app, it will reproduce this exception:

What could be possible wrong that caused me this error? I tried to investigate it, when I used version 6.5.0.Final, it will pull all the related dependencies. But since version 7.0.0.Final maven only pull the optaplanner-core artifact. Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks and regards.

Update 1

I have try to run mvn:dependency:tree -Dverbose and here is the result :

I see some warnings there, could it be what causing this problem? How to resolve it?

When the red engine light is blinking, stop driving the car and fix the problem.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/reflections/Configuration

That class org.reflections.Configuration comes from the reflections.jar which is a transitive dependency of optaplanner-core.

The maven build has a big red warning stating that it's not putting transitive deps (such as the reflections jar) on the classpath:

[WARNING] The POM for org.optaplanner:optaplanner-core:jar:7.0.0.Final is invali
d, transitive dependencies (if any) will not be available, enable debug logging
for more details

Not sure why the optaplanner-core 7.0.0.Final pom is invalid - I haven't seen that anywhere else and we have a lot of users using it every day, so it's probably just on your system. Delete ~/.m2/repository.
