Jackson Error : No such method com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonGenerator.setCurrentValue(Ljava/lang/Object;)V

Question

I am working on a Spring-MVC application and since morning I am getting the errors related to Jackson when I call a specific controller method. As there is no line specifically on which the error is, I looked up and found this to be a POM issue. I have only added Google and Dropbox dependencies since Friday, and this problem seems to be happening. I have already tried excluding Jackson-mapper, no luck.

Error log :

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet [appServlet] in context with path [] threw exception [Handler processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonGenerator.setCurrentValue(Ljava/lang/Object;)V] with root cause

What changes should I make in POM.xml, kindly let me know. Thanks a lot. :-)

Answer 1

I don't know which version of jackson your libraries require.

If they all require 1.9.x, then remove the dependency on Jackson2 and only leave the dependency on Jackson 2.

If they all depend on Jackson 2, then remove the dependency on Jackson 1.9 and leave the dependency on Jackson 2.

If some depend on Jackson 1 and some others depend on Jackson 1, then you'll have to remove one of these dependencies, because they're incompatible with each other.

Spring can use 1.x or 2.x, but not both at once.

Answer 2

The problem seems to be with the version of jackson versions used in the pom.xml.

please refer ,Jackson Json and no such method errors
