I created a vanilla Spring Boot App (1.5.9.RELEASE) but when I Run As -> Spring Boot App (in Eclipse Oxygen) I get
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.

I also tried mvn clean package -> java -jar target/boot-demo.jar which gives me

Answer
Extending Mark Bramnik answer, It does look like you don’t have logback, which is pretty weird because spring-boot-starter-web have a dependency on spring-boot-starter-logging. Just try to add spring-boot-starter-logging to your POM file
