Error creating bean 'org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.RequestMappingHandlerAdapter#1' - spring

Question

I'm trying to create a web-app, using Maven and Intellij Idea. Tests work fine as installing in .war-file. But when I try to refer to my rest with jetty, I have lots of error cases:
Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.RequestMappingHandlerAdapter#1' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/rest-spring.xml]: Initialization of bean failed;
nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/fasterxml/jackson/core/JsonProcessingException
Here are rest module files:

I saw solutions for similar situations: people offer to change versions of used frameworks and up the search level of component scan, but it doesn't work for me.

Answer 1

Add dependency to your POM:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
</dependency>
As you use dependency management in parent POM, there is no need to specify version.

Answer 2

Solved! The problem was I use not only jackson-core dependency, but also jackson databind, datatype and annotations and these dependencies had different versions: 2.7.1 for "core" and 2.4.3 for other ones. Now I use the same version for all of them and thus adding dependency had an affect. Thx for your help!)

Answer 3

I had the same problem. I used spring version 5.0.5.RELEASE and Jackson Core version 2.4.3.
I upgraded Jackson core up to 2.9.5 and it works now : exception "Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.RequestMappingHandlerAdapter' " dissapeared and my rest service works.
Before in my pom.xml :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
<version>2.4.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.4.3</version>
</dependency>
After :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
<version>2.9.5</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.9.5</version>
</dependency>
I hope it will help.

Answer 4

Yes. Using version 2.9.5 works:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
<version>2.9.5</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-annotations</artifactId>
<version>2.9.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.9.5</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-annotations</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
I'm using spring-webmvc: 5.0.12.RELEASE, if that helps.
