java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.boot.context.properties.bind.Bindable

Question

I've encountered a problem with my Springboot Server. Wanted to start it today and got hit with the following error:

I've tried updating Gradle and my Springboot dependencies, but to no effect so far. The project was running fine a few days ago and I've made no changes (even the fresh clone of the project from my repository throws this error now).

If its any help I'll include my SpringBootMiddlewareapplication.java:

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringbootMiddlewareApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(SpringbootMiddlewareApplication.class, args);

        try{
            FhirClientController.InitializeFhirContext();
        }catch(Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

and application.yml:

management:
    security:
        enabled: false

spring:
    datasource:
      driver-class-name: org.postgresql.Driver
      password: ****
      url: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/db
      username: ****

    devtools:
        remote:
            debug:
                enabled: true
    jpa:
        database-platform: default
        hibernate:
            ddl-auto: create-drop
        show-sql: true

http:
    port: 8080

server:
    address: 127.0.0.1
    port: 8080

Edit:

After changing my spring version to 2.1.3.RELEASE (and removing conflicting depenendies) the projects now throws me a different error:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

spring-security-oauth2-autoconfigure-2.1.3.RELEASE.jar is intended to be used with Spring Boot 2.1.x. You are using 1.5.9.

Spring Boot 1.5.x has its own auto-configuration support for OAuth 2. It was removed in Spring Boot 2.0 and moved to the separate spring-security-oauth2-autoconfigure module to ease the migration to the OAuth support that was introduced in Spring Security 5 and will be added to in its 5.x releases.

You should either stick on Spring Boot 1.5.x and remove your dependency on spring-security-oauth2-autoconfigure or you should upgrade to Spring Boot 2.1.x.
