Fail to configure CommonsMultipartResolver in Spring4

Question

I configure CommonsMultipartResolver in applicationContext.xml like following:

<bean id="multipartResolver"
      class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
</bean>

but it throws exception as following:

15-Feb-2017 22:17:35.049 INFO [RMI TCP Connection(2)-127.0.0.1] org.apache.jasper.servlet.TldScanner.scanJars At least one JAR was scanned for TLDs yet contained no TLDs. Enable debug logging for this logger for a complete list of JARs that were scanned but no TLDs were found in them. Skipping unneeded JARs during scanning can improve startup time and JSP compilation time.

I don't known why CommonsMultipartResolver failed to be instantiated. I can find CommonsMultipartResolver in spring-web-4.3.6.RELEASE.jar. But this exception is thrown:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/fileupload/FileItemFactory

What's wrong with my configuration?(I'm using Intellij IDEA)

UPDATE
this is my applicationContext.xml

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd">
    <bean id="multipartResolver"
          class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
    </bean>
</beans>

I have tried to solve the problem by adding commons-fileupload to IDEA project settings --> libraries. But it does't help, problems still.

Download commons-fileupload and keep it in your modules folder of your container. Apparently the class org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver has a hard dependency on org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileItemFactory which is a class contained in the above jar. Once your container class loader loads this class, you wouldn't get this error.
