spring mongo data exception, with configuring via xml - spring

Question

hopefully someone can help me with this. I am working on a spring-data with mongo, but somehow it gives me a runtime error:

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

If you are using Maven you should add depency to the spring-data-mongodb library
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-mongodb</artifactId>
<version>1.1.0.M1</version>
</dependency>

Answer 2

I get the same error too.
I found a solution for me.
The problem was that I've changed my pom.xml and setted last version explicitly (1.1.0.RELEASE) for both dependencies :
spring-data-mongodb
spring-data-commons-core
I get the same exception : NoClassDefFoundError: ...RepositoryConfigurationExtension
I've removed the second dependence in my pom.xml because the first "spring-data-mongodb" add an implicite dependence for the second one.
So, now Maven grab automatically spring-data-commons-core dependence (1.4.0.RELEASE) and it works fine!

Answer 3

If you are using Maven this is the only dependancy that is required:-
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-mongodb</artifactId>
<version>1.2.0.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
Configuration needed in the application context file:-
<bean id="mongo" class="org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoFactoryBean">
<property name="host" value="localhost" />
</bean>
<bean id="mongoTemplate" class="org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate">
<constructor-arg ref="mongo" />
<constructor-arg value="test" />
</bean>
