Jira Plugin does not get deployed with Apache POI dependency

[ramzi]

Hello,

I created a Jira Plugin with a post function module. In this plugin i added a dependency to Apache POI. 

When i deploy the plugin in Jira it fails to deploy and the atlassian-jira.log shows this error.

com.atlassian.plugin.osgi.container.OsgiContainerException: Cannot start plugin: com.company.project.WorkflowExtensions

This error usually occurs when your plugin imports a package from another bundle with a specific version constraint and either the bundle providing that package doesn't meet those version constraints, or there is no bundle available that provides the specified package.

when i remove the dependency to Apache POI the plugin gets deployed successfully.

Below is my pom.xml for the plugin:
