spring - NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.logging.Logger.debugf

Question

I'm trying to make a stack Spring + Spring Data + Log4J2 work. Unfortunately, when deploying the artefact on My Glassfish 4.1 Server, the following error occurs :

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class com.canal.config.spring.ContextConfig: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory com.canal.config.spring.ContextConfig.entityManagerFactory()] threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.logging.Logger.debugf(Ljava/lang/String;I)V

Answer 1

hibernate-entitymanager brought in jboss-logging as a dependency, but it is not the most up-to-date version and does not have that method implemented. It looks like you do not need jboss-logging, so try excluding it:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
    <version>5.0.1.Final</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.jboss.logging</groupId>
            <artifactId>jboss-logging</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>

Or if it turns out that you need jboss-logging for hibernate, then add a later version of jboss-logging as an additional dependency.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.logging</groupId>
    <artifactId>jboss-logging</artifactId>
    <version>3.3.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
