org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'securityInterceptor' defined in class path resource - spring

Question

I need to sign using SOAP request and due to that, I need to use ws-security dep from Spring.
#ComponentScan(basePackages = {"mk.softnet.wsdl","mk.softnet.Porting"})
public class SoapConfig extends WsConfigurerAdapter {
#Bean
public XwsSecurityInterceptor securityInterceptor() {
XwsSecurityInterceptor securityInterceptor = new XwsSecurityInterceptor();
securityInterceptor.setPolicyConfiguration(new ClassPathResource("securityPolicy.xml"));
securityInterceptor.setCallbackHandler(callbackHandler());
//Security Policy -> securityPolicy.xml
return securityInterceptor;
}
#Bean
SimplePasswordValidationCallbackHandler callbackHandler() {
SimplePasswordValidationCallbackHandler callbackHandler = new SimplePasswordValidationCallbackHandler();
// TODO #rap: Use real username and passwords
callbackHandler.setUsersMap(Collections.singletonMap("user", "password"));
return callbackHandler;
}

I tried to change version but did not get any success.

Answer 1

You need to add com.sun.xml.wss dependency.
Add this dependency to the pom.xml :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.wss</groupId>
<artifactId>xws-security</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<artifactId>xmldsig</artifactId>
<groupId>javax.xml.crypto</groupId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
Look at the pom for spring-ws-security - 2.2.0 RELEASE
