I'm getting an incompatible types error message at the following line in my spring-boot application:
RequestDO request = requestRepository.findOne(requestModel.getRequestId());
Users employee = usersRepository.findOne(request.getUsers().getId());
I have not experienced this error in this context before. My app has been running successfully since its first production build about one month ago.
Build failure:

I have made no code changes since I've last successfully re-built my project. This leads me to believe there has been a recent change in the springframework Maven dependency that has caused my code to break. Is it possible to test this by reverting to an older snapshot in my pom.xml? Also, what could be causing the error?
