Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.h2.Driver cannot be found by {my Component}.
What is the possible mistake that I would have made?
Have added the following dependency :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.h2database</groupId>
<artifactId>h2</artifactId>
<version>1.4.192</version>
</dependency>
And the class loader will be like this:
Class.forName("org.h2.Driver");
And I try to import the package for building an OSGi bundle as below:
com.h2database.*; version ="[1.0.0,3.0.0]"
I was struggling for so long and your help would be appreciated!
I think you're importing the wrong package: You are importing package com.h2database, but you're using the driver in package "org.h2"
Also, I think you have to import a package without the ".*" at the end
Never use Class.forName(String) in OSGi.
Always provide a classloader if you want to load classes dynamically. E.g.:
this.getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass(xxx) uses the same class loader that loaded the type of the current object.
MyType.class.getClassLoader.loadClass(xxx) uses the same class loader that loaded MyType
Class.forName(String, true, classLoader)
Also note, that you import the wrong package.

I'm having an issue with mockito and powermock, I can mock an abstract class with a final static method with no problems. When trying to mock an Interface as with WebIServerSession I'm getting the stacktrace below. I've had a look at other issues in powermock github repo and it seems to be related with the jvm version. I've already upgraded to the latest 1.8 java version as stated in https://github.com/mockito/mockito/issues/636 and I'm still getting the same error. Might it be related with Powermock compatibility with Mockito 2?

The exception is most likely to occur due to the version of Mockito used.
Try by replacing the current version of mockito-core with below dependency.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
<artifactId>mockito-core</artifactId>
<version>2.22.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
Ignore the warning of overriding managed version in pom.xml
Make sure your interface visibility is public.
I am not sure that it will be the solution in your case. I got the same issue when I was testing in Android Studio.
My solution was replace core-mockito with
androidTestImplementation "org.mockito:mockito-android:2.25.0"
Then it started working perfect.
It may be solution for those who are testing for Android Studio and having the same issue.
add
#RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
I also experienced this problem when trying to mock a non-public interface, and the error message didn't make sense, as all my tests in another suite passed correctly while mocking the same interface.
In my case I had to downgrade the Mockito Core library and revert it again to make it work. Here are the steps I took:
Find the Mockito Core dependency in the module level build.gradle file entry:
testImplementation 'org.mockito:mockito-core:2.25.0'
Downgrade to another valid version, in my example 2.23.0:
testImplementation 'org.mockito:mockito-core:2.23.0'
Do a Gradle sync and wait for completion
Revert the Mockito Core dependency to the same version you had before (or newer):
testImplementation 'org.mockito:mockito-core:2.25.0'
Sync the project again
Run the tests again
I had a similar issue. I was surprisingly having:
Mockito cannot mock this class: interface javax.servlet.ServletContext.
This was only when I ran my test in my IDE (IntelliJ Idea). If I tried to run it via maven command - it passed.
To make the test work in IntelliJ Idea I just changed the configurations:
Set Shorten command line to JAR manifest.
It's Strange but after adding below line in build.gradle file it work for me
androidTestImplementation "org.mockito:mockito-android:$mockitoAndroid"
I also have this problem by using IDEA, finally choose Shorten command line: "JAR manifest" solved
annotate your test class like this
#RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
#PrepareForTest({ResourceBundle.class, WebObjectsFactory.class, AnyOtherClassThatContainsStaticMethod.class, . . .})

I am using Jersey to marshall a Java object to JSON, as follows:
import javax.ws.rs.*;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
import java.io.IOException;
#POST
#Consumes({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON})
#Path("/test")
public Response replay(String input) throws IOException {
return Response.ok().entity(new MyClass()).build();
}
Am receiving the following exception:
javax.ws.rs.WebApplicationException: com.sun.jersey.api.MessageException: A message body writer for Java class com.company.MyClass, and Java type class com.company.MyClass, and MIME media type application/octet-stream was not found.
I understand that the solution here is to :
Add the jackson-jaxrs-json-provider dependency
Use com.sun.jersey.api.json.POJOMappingFeature
POJOMappingFeature is normally configured in web.xml.
Is there an alternative for applications which are annotation driven and do not use web.xml?
Thanks
You should just be able to add this to your pom file.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
<artifactId>jersey-media-moxy</artifactId>
</dependency>
This dependency is normally commented out if you have created your project from the Jersey maven archetype.
com.sun.jersey.api.json.POJOMappingFeature is only for version 1.* of Jersey. The package name changed from com.sun.* to org.glassfish.* from version 1 to 2 of Jersey.
I am building a small proof of concept Spring Boot app which is supposed to connect to a Neo4j instance and perform some basic operations on a couple of different Nodes. If I have the main application class wired to create an embedded Neo4j service using the following code, everything works fine. (this is based on the working example https://spring.io/guides/gs/accessing-neo4j-data-rest/)
#Bean(destroyMethod = "shutdown")
public GraphDatabaseService graphDatabaseService() {
return new GraphDatabaseFactory().newEmbeddedDatabase("target/hello.db");
}
This is the only code sample I can find though for connecting to a Neo4j server from spring boot. If I try connecting to a remote server, the code fails to start with the exception at the end of this question. Our plan is to run a centralized Neo4j instance which is obviously a common production requirement.
How can or should I configure my bean to connect to a remote Neo4j database or is anyone aware of a solid working example of this kind of setup?
Thanks!

I have seen several references to using SpringCypherRestGraphDatabase so I have this being handled in my Main application class is as follows:
import org.neo4j.graphdb.GraphDatabaseService;

import org.springframework.data.neo4j.config.EnableNeo4jRepositories;

#SpringBootApplication
#EnableNeo4jRepositories
public class ProfileServiceApplication extends Neo4jConfiguration {
public ProfileServiceApplication() {
setBasePackage("profile");
}
#Bean
public GraphDatabaseService graphDatabaseService() {
return new SpringCypherRestGraphDatabase("http://localhost:7474/db/data/","neo4j","password");
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(ProfileServiceApplication.class, args);
}
}
When I try to run with this configuration, I get the following error:
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.neo4j.graphdb.GraphDatabaseService]: Circular reference involving containing bean 'profileServiceApplication' - consider declaring the factory method as static for independence from its containing instance.

Please share your application as github-project for testing. Perhaps it is also a dependency issue of the spring-boot-starter? Which boot version are you using??
Perhaps you can check mvn dependency:tree if there is any older version of SDN pulled in and if so, update the neo4-version-property for the spring-boot-starter.
Example application is here:
http://neo4j.com/developer/java/#_using_spring_data_neo4j
and it is also in the docs as you correctly saw:
http://docs.spring.io/spring-data/data-neo4j/docs/3.3.0.RELEASE/reference/html/#using_spring_data_neo4j_as_a_neo4j_server_client
The reference which you are giving doesn't contain Neo4j URL.
Hence Here is Application.properties file to connect to your Neo4j.
spring.data.neo4j.uri=bolt://localhost
spring.data.neo4j.username=neo4j
spring.data.neo4j.password=Your_Password
Start your Neo4j Database as a console application which will run on localhost:7474 port most probably.
command to start:
neo4j console
Also check the dependency. As the latest version work with only
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-neo4j</artifactId>
</dependency>

I look in my deployed folder however and I see the jar that contains that file, what am I doing wrong?
https://github.com/davidahines/spacechip/tree/spring_security
The issue is that when I try to go to localhost:8080/spacechip I get "The resource is unavailable."
There is my configuration.
try change dependency of spring-web to 3.0.5.RELEASE in your pom, you are currently have 2 version on classpath
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
<version>3.0.5.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
The jar may be in your deployed folder, but is the jar (or your deployed folder with a wildcard) in the CLASSPATH?
EnvironmentAware is located in the spring-context-3.1.1.RELEASE.jar, so you are missing that one.
Also recheck your Maven POM file so that you are not missing any other Spring library, like spring-web, spring-webmvc (you may have these since the DispatcherServlet class if found), spring-orm if you use an ORM like Hibernate, spring-jms if you use JMS, etc.
I need the ability to reliably get client IP address in CXF JAX-WS and so I added the following code to my web service:
Message message = PhaseInterceptorChain.getCurrentMessage();
HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest)message.get(AbstractHTTPDestination.HTTP_REQUEST);
request.getRemoteAddr();
In order for the build to complete successfully, I had to add the following imports:
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.cxf.message.Message;
import org.apache.cxf.phase.PhaseInterceptorChain;
import org.apache.cxf.transport.http.AbstractHTTPDestination;
And add the following dependencies to my pom.xml:
<dependency> <!-- PhaseInterceptorChain & Message -->
<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
<artifactId>cxf-api</artifactId>
<version>2.4.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
<artifactId>cxf-rt-transports-http</artifactId>
<version>2.2.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency> <!-- HttpServletRequest -->
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>2.5</version>
<!-- scope>provided</scope -->
</dependency>
But when I try to deploy the resulting successful(!) build, Tomcat (7.0.42) throws an exception and refuses to load the war file:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException:

Apparently, something is missing from my pom.xml that provides the necessary module at runtime. What am I missing?
Mystery solved. For the benefit of all I am providing the root cause of the problem and the solution:
The problem was in this line:
<version>2.4.0</version>
That is, cxf-api artifact's version did not match the CXF version throughout the project (and the pom.xml).
All I had to do to solve the problem was to change that line to:
<version>${cxf.version}</version>
Where cxf.version was defined earlier as 2.7.1.
Conclusion: CXF dependencies/packages/plugins versions must match throughout the pom.xml (or else you will get some "red herrings").
