Spring framework hibernate beans - spring

Question

My problem is connected to Spring and Hibernate with Maven. I created an application and I cant run it. I have found milion reasons why it could happened but it is impossible to me to resolve it.
This is my error message:
SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener

I have included all hibarnate jars, pom.xml file is also correct. What is suprising my friend can run my application on his configuration.
EDIT:
I tried to remove hibernate-annotations jar but after that i saw this error:

Answer 1

It happens when you have multiple versions of jars added in your maven dependency(mismatch of jar versions), so please check here

Answer 2

It looks like you have multiple versions of hibernate on your classpath. The root cause of this error is
Caused by: java.lang.VerifyError: class org.hibernate.type.WrappedMaterializedBlobType overrides final method getReturnedClass.()Ljava/lang/Class;
My guess is the API changed slightly between versions and your app is loading the wrong version of hibernate (possibly through a transient dependency). It's possible it works on your friend's configuration because the classes just happen to be loaded in the correct order.
Verify that are not including multiple versions, and if you are, try to remove the duplicate (or at least force the right version in the dependencyManagement section of your pom).
