Answer 1

This is the Objenesis version that is embedded in Spring. So you don't need the actual Objenesis jar. Which is normally in spring-core.
In your case, I think you have an incompatibility between your spring jar. The easiest solution is probably to upgrade everything to the latest spring version.

Answer 2

Please make sure the jar is in the boot classpath of the server. This is usually the server's lib or endorsed directory, not your application's WEB-INF/lib directory.
See if that solves your problem.
Hope this helps!
